An Australian thriller concerning a comatose patient with telekinetic powers (Thompson) who looks a lot like Marty Feldman. There are a few interesting ideas, and at least one good shock, but they're buried by some dreadful script and production errors: the setting is a hospital in which everyone spends their time shouting at each other for no reason at all except the writer's eccentric idea of dramatic construction, and even the shock sequences are interrupted by long phone calls discussing what's happened so far.
