The Fury

You cold look at this film in two ways, one being Brian De Palma was continuing to explore a theme or the other being he decided to rip his own film CARRIE off. Either way, the elements and similar and the themes certainly along the same lines as they both deal with telekinetic young girls wreaking holy havoc on the bad folks around them. Still, like CARRIE, THE FURY remains a classic Seventies horror film and has some fairly nice twists in it. Amy Irving is fine in her leading role sharing duties with screen legend Kirk Douglas who appears to be slumming it here. Be sure to look for some interesting cameos from Gordon Jump and Dennis Franz as well as the screen debut of Daryl Hannah and prepare yourself for one of the greatest blow 'em up real good endings which still holds up to this day.
