NEW STUFF: PATRICK (1978)

"Who is Patrick? Is he '170 pounds of limp meat hanging off a comatose brain?' Or is he a diabolic force with mysterious powers?"
This has been on my wishlist for a long time, but I'd held out until I found just the right copy. Browsing a local record shop's VHS shelves this past week, I finally ran across a HarmonyVision copy of "Patrick" for just five bucks. Not in bad shape, either. This Australian horror film centers on a sinister comatose patient who manipulates his surroundings through powerful telekinesis. Directed by Richard Franklin, the man behind "Road Games," "Link," and the wildly underrated "Psycho 2," the film features a soundtrack by either Brian May or Goblin, depending on what version you wind up with.


Also available exclusively on HarmonyVision, "STONER!"
