A near identical made-for-TV counterpart - Title needed !
Are spoilers really necessary for a 40 year-old film?
Anyway, there were two films made about this time, both with an identical set-up.
In both versions, a suburban mother discovers her rebellious teenage girl has psychic powers that she uses to lash out against anyone who annoys her, often with fatal results.
Mom decides she has to take on her rebellious daughter alone.
In one version, THE SPELL, Mom reveals she has powers too ("Where did you think you got your powers?") and gives daughter a psychic spanking that restores her to civility.
In another version (WHAT THE HECK WAS THE TITLE ????) Mom has no powers and instead decides to kill her daughter and herself.
►Anyone remember the name of the other flick? And no, it's not CARRIE.◄
