The Sender (Christian, 1982): BFI Southbank, NFT3, 6.10pm
This film is part of the BFI Southbank Terror Vision strand.
BFI introduction:
Often claimed to be an inspiration on A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream
Warriors, Roger Christian’s psychokinetic phantasmagoria (itself
influenced by the likes of Carrie and Patrick) tells the story of a
young man who is able to transmit his disturbed dreams into the minds of
the people around him. A bracing blend of insidious surrealism and
spectacular set pieces, this singular shocker is cited by Quentin
Tarantino as his favourite film from 1982.
Here (and above) is the trailer.
