Episode 39: Telekinesis Movies feat. Jim Laczkowski of Director’s Club Podcast

YEAH, PUSH IT! PUSH IT REAL GOOD! WITH YOUR MIND, THOUGH, NOT YOUR HANDS.



It’s mind over matter as Gabe and returning guest Jim Laczkowski take a look at more movies about the potential power of the human brain. This time, we’re focusing on something a little less esoteric than Existential State Manipulation: telekinesis. But we’re not covering the big names – no Carrie, no superhero movies, no Star Wars, not even Zapped. Instead, we’re talking about Jack Gold’s The Medusa Touch (1978), Roland Emmerich’s Making Contact (aka: Joey, 1985), Pierre David’s Scanner Cop (1994), and Yeon Sang-ho’s Psychokinesis (Korean: Yeom-lyeok, 2018). Prepare to be in awe of how badly we butcher Korean names! 00:00 – Intro
