Powder

USA 1995, 107 minutes
Dir. Victor Salva
Rating: [M]
Genres: Science Fiction / Fantasy, Youth

Aroview: Teenage alienation is given a supernatural charge in this story of a terminally-isolated, albino-like youth with metaphysical powers.

Attempts to assimilate him in 'normal' society result in scenes of emotional power and creepy intrigue. Probably Michael Jackson's favourite film.

4 stars (Very Good) A shy and wise albino teen, known as Powder, alienated by his peers who misunderstand and fear him, displays mysterious supernatural powers. Some memorable moments and contains a moving message. ~GenXGirl

3 stars (Good Enough) Very odd fantasy film with a central character as intriguing and strange (yet well-meaning) as Edward Scissorhands, Powder tells of a young albino boy feared and ridiculed by almost an entire rural American town. ~Tom H
