Who has The Power? The Power to control minds, move objects, and murder by telekinesis? That’s what scientists at a space lab want to know when they realize they are targeted by one of their own – someone who possesses a superhuman power and a terrifying secret agenda. Producer George Pal brings the imagination and craft that turned his The War of the Worlds and The Time Machine into sci fi-classics to this eerie tale heightened by a suspenseful Miklos Rozsa score. The fine cast, led by George Hamilton and Suzanne Pleshette, includes two talents forever emblematic of paranoid post-war sci-fi/creature features: Michael Rennie (The Day the Earth Stood Still) and Richard Carlson (Creature from the Black Lagoon).

The made to order DVD was factory perfect and delivered in a timely manner...exceeded my expectations!
from Staten Island, New York on 12/28/2011Comments about Power, The (DVD):
This is a good and suspenseful film produced by George Pal, the man who gave us the classic films: "The Time Machine" and the "War of the Worlds."
The film concerns some unknown killer wiping out of the scientists involved in a genetic testing project. The team leader, a very good George Hamilton falls under suspicion as he attempts to unravel who the killer is and why. He is assisted by fellow-scientist and love interest, Suzanne Pleshette, who shows us once again what a beautiful woman she was in her prime. The terrific supporting cast includes Michael Rennie, Earl Holliman, Aldo Ray, Richard Carlson, Arthur O'Connell, Gary Merrill and others. The film also has a terrific musical score by legendary film composer Miklos Rosza. (You will remember the music after the film is over.)
In conclusion, this is a good suspense film with some nice special effects. It will keep you guessing up to the conclusion. Picture and sound quality were very nice on my blu-ray player.

I was worried that I wasn't going to get my purchase. WB came through and I just received the DVD's. I am happy with the availability of obscure titles for my unique tastes. I'm sure to shop again in the future when that less than blockbuster movie catches my eye.

This new service by the WB store is awesome for forty year old sleeper hits. One day this movie will be recognized for how ahead of it's time it was.

from Walled Lake, MI on 1/3/2011Comments about Power, The (DVD):
Solidly good-to-great sci-fi film. Suitable viewing for all ages. Excellent print/DVD quality. Above-average acting (top-notch cast), screenplay, music, cinematography (VERY 60's), and effects. Would recommend without any reservations!

This was the first time I ever saw this film. While I'm not a big fan of George Hamilton I thought he did a fine job in this role. I was very pleased with the movie and I'm very happy to have it in my collection. I have always enjoyed movies about powers of the mind and this is now on my top 5 list.
