This is a documentary that is based off of a book of the same name. In it various types of psychic phenomenon are examined and anecdotes are provided for illustration. We also get to learn the current state of scientific inquiry on these subjects, what the American military is doing to prevent a "psychic gap", and even where things stood legally (circa 1988)! In all the tone feels very much like a version of "The Amazing World of Psychic Phenomena" (1976) that has been updated for 1988. (The filmmakers seemed to think the same thing as twice they reuse footage from "Amazing World" and don't even offer any credit!) Instead of excitement at the future potential to become pure energy, we are treated to theories about how modern warfare will change with the introduction of psychics. While it doesn't have the wonderful moog music found in so many 70's shlockumentaries this is still a very fun one to watch.
