(1978)Directed by Robert Day96 minHorror, TV Movie
“She Was Born With Devastating Psychic Powers. And She's Forced To Unleash Them In A Shocking Finale!”

Things happen around Sarah Goodwin (Kay Lenz) that nobody can explain, and she is the only one who knows why. At college she is turned away by the sorority her sister wanted, then taken in by a less popular house run by Mrs. Hunter (Shelley Winters), who has her own plans for Sarah's gift. Robert Day makes a story about belonging, and about what a shy girl will do once someone finally wants her.
