Of these four films probably the most neglected, and deservedly so, is John Frankenheimer's ecological horror film starring Robert Foxworth, Talia Shire, Armand Assante, Richard Dysart and a carnivorous, drooling fifteen foot mutant bear. 5 out of 5 found this helpful. Was this review helpful? After a curiously ominous opening to sucker you in, it then focuses on the melodramas and political aspects of the story / script. Prophecy is one of those horror films that wants you to believe that the message it has underscores all the lame special effects and other flaws.

But fighting ensues, and the EPA gets involved by sending a doctor to help examine the problems of the area. 8 out of 16 found this helpful. 18 out of 30 found this helpful. Frankenheimer usually is able to capture a very pervasive mood and create rich suspense and deep characters, but not in Prophecy. The Katahdin possesses the following powers and abilities: I guess it doesn't like it when you're looking at it. RF also said that Frankenheimer was an accomplished chef and had occasionally treated the DP and Cast to gourmet meals.

Maggie says she heard of another legend of Kadardin. Was this review helpful? He also gave this ridiculous eco-monster movie enough discipline and artistic snap to raise it above the level of mutant frogs, bunnies, and snakes, all croaking, hopping, and slithering around the late 70s. 7 out of 9 found this helpful. A paper mill and these inhabitants have crossed swords to rid the area of the paper mill's influence and bring the land back to its original peoples. I give heap big allowances that this movie had to be edited down, and so, I use my brain to fill in the holes. Was this review helpful? The locals just want to preserve the beauty; and not destroy it.

Think "Grizzly"… only angrily mutated.

Sure, it has a message, but that does not excuse it from being bad. Take your favorite fandoms with you and never miss a beat. After leaving Rob still has doubts, especially after seeing a huge salmon, a tadpole 10x it's size, and a raccoon that suffered from rabies.

and the intellectual concept gradually becomes replaced with mundane and unspectacular monster-chasing-men-through-the-woods sequences. Leonard Rosenman's music score is forcefully cued. A nastily so-so little cult fare that ends on those predictably common final shots. 20 out of 24 found this helpful. 2 out of 2 found this helpful.

It's part of the fun. You can easily say that this is not your average bear. Enjoy!

Once there they meet the lumber yard owner Isley( Richard Dysart). However they find an Indian blockage of the road and witness a conflict between the leader of the Opies John Hawks (Armand Assante) and Isely and his men. The fear is only amplified, knowing that an insane freak is lurking out there. And that is just one of the major flaws of the film. Was this review helpful? He tells them that it is the Garden of Eden, where everything grows big. Any of you buying Armand in this role? The Indians don't like him because he is destroying their land by taking the lumber; and using it for his paper/lumber mill. Katahdin is an abnormally large bipedal grizzly bear that was born with a horrific birth defect that left the skin on the left side of her body horribly scarred and disfigured. The old contamination plot is used here again, but hey if its not broke don't fix it. 11 out of 16 found this helpful. The further along it goes, the sillier it does get. So what? Prophecy is NOT a good movie but is entertaining to a degree. with.

There are quite a number of disturbing scenes that play on the imagination: the duck being eaten, the camper stuck in the sleeping bag getting killed, that slimy tadpole, the gurgling fetus bears caught in the net, the cigarette burns- just to name a few. Great movie, one of my favorites, never gets old. Worth a peek in case you're a fan of typical 70's fare, but definitely no priority viewing. Was this review helpful?

It is all a sign of Methyl mercury poisoning.

If you've ever been in one a forest at night is a scary place. The performances are tolerable with the likes of Talia Shire (who's always looks a stunned dear in headlights), Robert Foxworth, Armand Assante and Richard Dysart. It is a horror with a great combination: A disgusting, if campy, host of mutants; a plausible foundation for the existence of the mutants; and some great "outright screamer" scares. The 1979 ecological horror film Prophecy is now available to stream online for free courtesy of Paramount and their YouTube channel The Paramount Vault.

Reviewers of the film are quick to undercut its actual effectiveness as a film without realizing that many parts of the film succeed, including the tension of the characters against the beast, the horror of the beasts' attacks, the helplessness of man within nature, etc. Saw this at a Drive-In with Friday the 13th, thought this film was better. John Frankenheimer was once a highly regarded film director in the 1960s and 70s with themes such politics , identity and existentialism being running themes . When you see a film like PROPHECY you start thinking that no matter how much the critics get paid then it's not nearly enough Isley tell him he can test the water if he wants. The Native Americans of Maine have been experiencing a rather high mortality rate with their children. 10 out of 12 found this helpful. The night time camera-work definitely captures this feeling.
