4 out of 5 stars Great movie of the biggest bull****ter psychic ever   March 4, 2008
Sum Yung Guy (Illinois, USA)
This really is a great movie. Wells does a fantastic job as narrator. It's great fun and great entertainment. I remember watching this movie in the mid 80's on VHS and being freaked out about the end of the world predictions. Time passed and we're still here. The story is filled holes and lies, but it's all good fun just the same.

4 out of 5 stars Love it or hate it, this movie is a must see   March 3, 2007

I, like so many other people here, saw this movie when it was originally broadcast in the 80's. I was a teenager and it frightened the hell out of me. Now, as and I adult, I just reordered it from Amazon Marketplace to view again with my family.
Some say the movie is inacurate. Some say it's eerily right on. Others consider it to be complete conjecture. In the end, the theme you hear in the majority of reviews is that if you saw this movie 25 years ago, it stuck with you. It ticked you off, or haunted you.
Personally, it freaked me out, but whether it's fact or fiction, or a mixture of both, no one can argue that it's entertaining, and worth watching! I would imagine that although the things that were printed on the net at the time of 9-11 were hoaxes, that watching this film post 9-11 has to be creepy even without specific mention of the towers.
It'll be interesting to see what effect it has on me now.
I only wish they would release it on DVD.



4 out of 5 stars Do You Ever Wonder?   July 24, 2006

Does it ever make you wonder why this film (slated for DVD release in 2002)never made it to that point?
Do you ever wonder why it's no longer available on VHS (except for a few smart people that were looking into the future themselves)
I certainly haven't been able to find it for rent at any of my local video outlets.
Hummmm.....Don't recall seeing on cable, either.
Maybe the "Powers that Be" don't believe most people can think on their own, and they would go flying into the streets in great panic if this movie were to become available.
This is a very entertaining documentary, and whether the predictions are accurate or not.....it got a lot of people thinking, and studying.
Maybe people should be thinking about other things that may be with-held "For our own Good?" You know the slogan for "The powers that Be" is....a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
Release the movie already!
