	Movies - The Sorcerers

The Sorcerers is a British science fiction horror film directed by Michael Reeves and released in 1967. It was written by Reeves and Tom Baker and starred Boris Karloff and Catherine Lacey as an elderly couple who use a new method of hypnosis to share the experiences of others. A bored young man, played by Ian Ogilvy, serves as their surrogate in acts which become more and more amoral and violent. The film avoids easy moralising by refusing to take sides between the old woman (seemingly the instigator of much of the violence) and the young man (whom we are told must be "willing" to submit to the hypnotic control). The Sorcerers is one of the few horror films to treat old age as a painful, lonely and repressive experience, rather than as a time of grandfatherly wisdom and fortitude (as in countless Hammer films).
