HorrorThrillerScience FictionMystery
Nach einem Mordanschlag auf sein Leben liegt Schriftsteller Jack Morlar im Krankenhaus. Obwohl der Autor klinisch tot ist, arbeitet sein Gehirn per Telekinese, was die Psychologin Dr. Zonfield herausfinden konnte. Nun soll der französische Austauschkommissar Brunel den Fall für Scotland Yard lösen. Tatsächlich kann Morlar mit seiner Gedankenkraft Katastrophen auslösen und sein Gehirn arbeitet an einem perfiden Plan. Doch Brunel, der unter Zeitdruck gerät, kann den sterbenden Morlar nicht aufhalten...
