The Eyes Of Charles Sand (1972)

A fledgling psychic (Peter Haskell) uses his newfound powers to help a disturbed young woman (Sharon Farrell, overacting shamelessly), who insists her brother has been murdered even though he's alive and well in London. Co-written by Henry Farrell (WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE?) and directed by Reza Badiyi. A formulaic thriller that was a feature length pilot for a potential television series that was never picked up. Haskell is as bland a leading man as one could find and he's a cipher while almost everyone else is acting up a storm around him. Joan Bennett as Haskell's aunt is subdued but her very presence dwarfs him. The solution to the movie's "mystery" is obvious to anyone who has ever watched mysteries on a regular basis. The film has no credited score but they've recycled Henry Mancini's underscore to WAIT UNTIL DARK and its use is adequate. With Barbara Rush, Bradford Dillman and Adam West.
