Richard Attenborough’s MAGIC  
(R, 1978, 118 min)
“A terrifying love story.” With a remake produced by Sam Raimi now in development, there’s never been a better time to experience the 1978 original. Anthony Hopkins delivers a mesmerizing performance as Corky, a timid magician who rises to fame with his ventriloquist dummy, Fats, whose personality grows darker, more cunning, and terrifyingly independent. Ann-Margret stars as Peggy, the woman caught in the escalating tension, whose love and loyalty are tested as jealousy, obsession, and murder spiral out of control. Though set in contemporary New York, the film pulses with gothic dread: a cursed partnership, hidden violence, and evil lurking in the familiar. With tragedy, moral ambiguity, and psychological terror woven together, Magic proves horror can be intimate, unsettling, and unforgettable.
