Suffice to say "How Awful about Allan" probably won't be mentioned in the same breath as "Duel" or "Killdozer!" when it comes time to name the best TV movies of the '70s. Allan (Anthony Perkins, for once not playing some variation of "Psycho's" Norman Bates) is a young man persistently living in the shadow of his stern academic father. After failing to save his dad in a house fire which also scars his sister (Julie Harris), Allan is committed to a mental institution for months suffering from guilt and hysterical blindness. But it's not hysterical blindness. If anything, I'd call it "runny-watercolor-vision." And Perkins doesn't even act blind throughout most of the movie. These major flaws, plus an inert, rather inept plot, make "Awful" a trying sit. Not even producer Aaron Spelling's usual bag of TV-enhancing tricks could save it.

The made-for-TV movie starred Anthony Perkins, in his only TV movie, with him effectively playing another over-the-top psycho role.

A predictable suspense story, but it's always cool to see Perkins play a psycho, right?

Was a good movie, with an good plot and good acting, and great camera use

Here's the idea: what if we team psychologically sensitive Anthony Perkins (of "Psycho" fame) with psychologically sensitive Julie Harris (of "The Haunting" fame) in a big, old dark house and whisper "who dat?" over and over and see what happens? And that's the whole ticket here. The upshot is predictable, yes, but there are moments of creepy goodness. Still, save this for later. Much later.
