John Sessions..
..I was suprised to see Englands John Sessions in this film - had to confirm it on IMDB.. no real point to this post other than commenting on that.

Apparently this was his first film. Does he play one of the orderlies? Judging from his filmography, I've seen many of his movies -- but I'm not sure who he is.
shareHe is one of the patients, short dark hair and nervous (from recollection).

Thanks. I'll have to watch this again to see who he is.

The thing that's weird is I didn't even recognize the lead in this film, Zeljko Ivanek (what a name!), who's all over TV these days! I was thinking he was an obscure actor who went nowhere, and the guy's downright prolific.
shareThis was filmed in England, wasn't it? I had more of a "WTF?" moment when I saw John Sessions in Gangs Of New York.
Give a thousand monkeys a thousand laptops and they'd all be writing their stupid opinions on IMDB.
I thought this was filmed in Los Angeles.
shareNo, it was a British production with a transatlantic feel to it. During the early eighties, the British horror production was in decline so in order to attact a huge audience, film makers had to market it more to the Americans to bring in the money. Lifeforce and Hellraier area couple that come to mind. If you look at the cast, a lot of the people in The Sender are British but they speak American due to dubbing (again to appeal to the US).
It was filmed partly at Pinewoods/Iver Heath in UK and partly in Georgia (I want to say Macon). I love the Scenary. The indoors were filmed at Pinewood and outside shot in Georgia, US.
Thanks for the background on where this was filmed. But are you sure the British voices were dubbed? Brits and Americans speak the same language, after all: English.
shareYes, Marsha Hunt, Tracy Harper, etc were were English but yet you only heard one English accent in the film and that was the Dr. The more American it seemed, the more cash it would take in.
