The Fury (1978) Former government agent Peter Sandza, goes head-to-head against old colleague turned bitter adversary Ben Childress, when Childress tries to kill him, and kidnaps his son, the telepathically-gifted Robin. Childress seeks to use Robin's powers to further secret experiments in 'psi' research for weapons applications. Peter's only link to his son is Gillian Bellaver, an equally gifted teen who is tuned in to Robin's powers. Peter and Gillian join forces in a race against time to save Robin from his captors, and also from himself.

Movie Quote(s):
  • Peter Sandza: Mother Nuckells, I'd appreciate it if you didn't untie 'em until after "M*A*S*H" is over. Mother Nuckells: "M*A*SH"? I won't untie 'em until after "Sunrise Semester".
  • Peter Sandza: Ask Childress if all this was worth his arm. Bob: What? Did you do something to his arm Peter? Peter Sandza: I killed it. With a machine gun.
  • Peter Sandza: I killed her. I knew I would, the first time I said "Hello".
  • Gillian Bellaver: Who's Robin Sandza? Dr. Ellen Lindstrom: He is a boy your age. With powers like yours.
  • Peter Sandza: Hester, look at me. I'm proof - proof that my son is alive or else why would Childress be so anxious to put me away?... Well, thank God I'm somewhere.
Movie Trivia:
  • James Belushi was hired and fired as an extra on this film. If you look closely at the tracking shots of Amy Irving in her swimsuit, you can see Belushi in a pair of dark trunks a few steps behind Irving.
  • For her role as a psychic with telepathic powers, Amy Irving attended a biofeedback clinic to learn about different levels of consciousness. After personally experiencing psychic changes, she had a better sense of how her character could transmit and receive messages.
  • The videogame system featured at the Paragon Institute was a Fairchild Channel F system.
  • The amusement park scenes were filmed inside Old Chicago, the world's first indoor theme park and shopping mall. Built in 1975, closed in 1980, and finally razed in 1986, it was located in Bolingbrook, a southwest suburb of Chicago, IL.
  • The first film for both Daryl Hannah and Laura Innes.
