Following in the bloody footsteps of Brian De Palma's Carrie comes Australia's offering of telekinetic terror. Part twisted love story, part supernatural thriller, Patrick tells the story of a comatose patient (Robert Thompson) who falls in love with his nubile new nurse, Kathy (Susan Penhaligon). Sadly enough, his only means of communication are via electricity, spitting, and general death and destruction. Suspense mounts as Patrick begins to infiltrate Kathy's life, and head nurse Matron Cassidy (played wickedly by Julia Blake) develops evil schemes of her own. Director Richard Franklin (Psycho II) manages efficient performances from the cast, and upon release Patrick was nominated for Best Film by the Australian Film Institute (but played the drive-in chain in the U.S.). This may not be the frightfest promised in the tag line ("Patrick is in a coma... yet, he can kill"), but Patrick still proves to be an interesting diversion and provides some absolutely terrifying glimpses of late-'70s fashion. --Matt Wold

Narrated by Academy Award® nominee Liam Neeson (Schindler s List) and Gabriel Byrne (The Usual Suspects) as the voice of Patrick.Few historical figures inspire more celebration than Ireland s St. Patrick. Many believe him to have been an Irishman who drove the snakes from Ireland but neither is true. Patrick offers a dramatic new look at one of the best-loved and least-understood icons of world religion. The story of the real St. Patrick is part adventure tale and part spiritual awakening with the future saint rising from slave to liberator; learning to forgive and ultimately love his enemies; taking up a cause no one believed in; and finally lighting a fire that kept western civilization alive. Patrick was filmed entirely on location in Ireland and features commentary from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Frank McCourt (Angela s Ashes) as well as an Emmy®-nominated soundtrack.SPECIAL FEATURES: Commentary from: Pulitzer Prize-winning author Frank McCourt (Angela s Ashes) and Emmy®-winning director Pamela Mason WagnerVideo montage featuring the Emmy®-nominated soundtrackSystem Requirements:Running Time: 60 Mins Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DOCUMENTARIES/MISC.
