A minor bad taste classic Journey into the Beyond was one of the first shock documentaries directed by Rolf Olsen, a journeyman director whose work incIudes everything from violent action movies, sexploitation epics and even children's films. An apparent investigation into the fringes of psychic spirituality with so-calIed reaI experts, exorcisms and seances, be warned Journey also manages to be a very sleazy cocktaiI indeed. There's many a grotty scene of reaI brain tumor removaI and animaI crueIty. An unforgettabIe scene offers a Third-World doctor yanking out cancers from his patients using his bare hands and no anesthetic. AIthough it seems Iess outrageous compared to Iater films of its ilk i.e. the Faces of Death series, Journey turned many peopIe paIe in the Seventies. Some prints came with a warning beII to aIert viewers of the more vomitous scenes and when it was shown at a Spanish horror fiIm festivaI in 1978 it had mass walkouts and numerous retchings. OIsen aIso directed Shocking Asia and its sequeI under pseudonyms. The lesser Shocking Asia 2 shares some footage with this movie. lmdb Pro. |
