Plot

In 1988, a telekinetic Soviet agent known as "Firehead" (Brett Porter) defects to the west after refusing to use his powers against Estonian protesters. Two years later, he begins blowing up American munitions factories for unknown reasons. An NIH chemist (Chris Lemmon) and a government assassin (Gretchen Becker) are ordered to track him down. Meanwhile, a secret society led by Colonel Vaughn (Christopher Plummer) prepares to use Firehead's activities as a pretext for a coup d'Ă©tat.

Reception

According to Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times, the film is "as inept and dismal a political thriller as you would never wish to watch", though he praised certain members of the cast, in particular the cameo appearance by Martin Landau.

In 2013 it was the subject of a RiffTrax commentary track featuring Michael J. Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy. The trio directed much of their mockery toward Chris Lemmon, who was compared unfavorably to his more famous father.
