a_chinn Review of The Two Worlds of Jennie Logan

The Two Worlds of Jennie Logan (1979 TV Movie)

The Bionic Woman and The Beastmaster are "Somewhere in Time"

[7/10 · 5 November 2017]

After reading that this film in that it was written and directed by Frank De Felitta, who made the memorably scary and lurid Barbara Hershey horror film "The Entity," I was somewhat intrigued what this paranormal TV movie would be like. While "The Entifity" much more along the lines of "The Exorcist" or "The Changeling" as a straight up horror film, this film is much more along the lines of "Somewhere in Time" or "The Time Traveler's Wife" as a romantic story with mystery and fantasy elements. Lindsay Wagner, best known as The Bionic Woman, Jaimie Sommers, plays Jeannie Logan, a recently divorced woman moving into an old Victorian home. After exploring her new home, she finds herself traveling back in time and unraveling a murder mystery that occurred long ago at the home. She falls in love with a hunky artist from the past, The Beastmaster, Marc Singer, but is The Beastmaster the murderer? Will love conquer all? Will the Bionic Woman be trapped in the past or trapped in the present away from her Beastmaster love? This is strictly 1970s cheese, but it's pretty entertaining cheese.
