    • Trivia
      The amusement park scenes were filmed inside Old Chicago, the world's first indoor theme park and shopping mall. Built in 1975, closed in 1980, and finally razed in 1986, it was located in Bolingbrook, a southwest suburb of Chicago, Illinois.
    • Goofs
      At the construction site after the car chase, Peter has tricked a pair of government agents into driving off a sheer drop. Their car drops offscreen and a moment later a giant fireball rises into frame, implying that the car struck something solid and exploded.

      Soon after, Peter drives a stolen Cadillac off the same precipice and his car lands in a body of water with no sign of the exploded car or what it might have hit to make it blow up.
    • Quotes

      Peter Sandza: Ask Childress if all this was worth his arm.

      Peter Sandza: I killed it. With a machine gun.

    The Fury... worth watching

    "The Fury" was a decent movie. It started off rather fast paced and I was somewhat clueless as to what was going on, but as the movie went on I got into it. Peter Sandza (Kirk Douglas) was going through great lengths to find his kidnapped son, all the while his son, Robin (Andrew Stevens) was under the watchful eye of a government official interested in Robin's psychic abilities. A collision course is set between Robin and another young lady with psychic abilities as well. The movie has a bit of suspense and a bit of spookiness to it as well. The ending was a total surprise and very um... bloody. I liked the movie, I thought the story was unique enough and the suspense and action wasn't half bad.
