Blood Link (1982)

A successful American physician finds himself tormented by vivid visions in which he brutally murders innocent victims. At first he dismisses these episodes as mere nightmares, but soon his waking life is disrupted as these terrifying visions begin to mirror real crimes. Haunted by fear and confusion, he begins to suspect a deeper connection between himself and the killer. As the visions continue to intensify, the doctor discovers he has a twin brother from whom he was separated at birth. Convinced his sibling is behind the gruesome murders, he travels to Europe to confront him and end the nightmare. Once abroad, he is drawn into a sinister world of deception, manipulation, and escalating violence where the shocking truth about their psychic connection is revealed. Italian director Alberto De Martino, best known for classics such as Formula for a Murder and The Antichrist, helms this suspenseful thriller with style, delivering effective chills and plenty of psychological twists. Michael Moriarty, star of Larry Cohen’s Q and The Stuff, gives a riveting dual performance as the conflicted brothers, supported by a haunting score from legendary composer Ennio Morricone. With its captivating plot and stylish execution, Blood Link remains a standout in the world of European horror thrillers. 98 minutes STANDARD FORMAT English audio soundtrack DVD is NTSC format, Region 0 (region free) playable world wide Also known as: Extrasensorial, The Link   Directed by Alberto De Martino Starring: Michael Moriarty, Penelope Milford, Geraldine Fitzgerald, Cameron Mitchell, Sarah Langenfeld, Martha Smith and Virginia McKenna
