*** Three presentations of the film: the original Australian theatrical version; the shortened US theatrical cut with American dubbing; and the Italian theatrical version, featuring an alternative score by Italian prog legends Goblin and presented with English subtitles for the first time
Murderer Patrick is kept in a comatose state between life and death, under the watchful eye of the eccentric Dr Roget. When he is assigned a caring new nurse, Kathy, he becomes possessive, and uses telekinetic powers to torment anyone who comes between them.
From director Richard Franklin comes Patrick, a terrifying fusion of science fiction and Hitchcockian thriller.
