Mindbender is the story of Uri Geller, probably the world's most famous psychic. The film shows his rise to fame from small shows in the middle east where he amazed audiences with his parapsychological feats of spoon-bending and clock-fixing. Terence Stamp plays a scientist who brings him to America. (imdb)

Hysterically funny...no, really! How could this not have been intended as a comedy? The disclaimer at the beginning reads: "The following events are true and are interpreted through the artistic eye of Ken Russell". Since most of Geller's claims of supernatural abilities have been debunked, I guess that translates as "Open season!" And thank god...this is a return to the camp excesses of 25 years earlier, like "The Music Lovers". The sequence starting with the exit from the casino is HILARIOUS!
