Best known for a string of violent ’80s action movies, James Glickenhaus directed his first feature in his early twenties, straight out of film school. Adapted from a novel by John Cameron, The Astrologer (1975) is a messy mix of New Age hocus-pocus, religious claptrap and apocalyptic horror.

The deep undercover U.S. government organization Interzod, run by Dr. Alexei Abernal (Bob Byrd), specializes in tracking individuals’ life and career paths based upon their astrological birth coordinates. On the other side of the globe in India, the mystical leader Kajerste (Mark Buntzman) has been captured by the government and placed under arrest, but his captors are unprepared for his overwhelming hypnotic powers and he quickly escapes back to his cadre of devout followers. What do these two have in common? Both are searching for the exact time and location of the Virgin Mary’s birth, hoping that if another person’s zodiacal potential were to coincide, the outcome would be the Second Coming of Christ...
