The uncanny events begin happening shortly after writer John Morlar (Richard Burton) was hit over the head by an unknown intruder and rendered comatose. Slowly, Brunel begins to connect the strange things that are happening in the world with the deranged dreams of the comatose Morlar. He gets the final clue he needs from Morlar's reluctant psychiatrist, Dr. Zonfield (Lee Remick), who holds the key to Morlar's past. Once it is discovered that Morlar has the ability to think horrible thoughts and make them come true, Brunel and Zonfield must take off with dispatch to a London cathedral, where the Queen is scheduled to make an appearance - but Morlar is thinking about the cathedral, and it is crumbling fast.original text:"[...] While you're worrying about that billion dollar coffin around the moon, spare a thought for the millions they could have fed with all that technology and expertise.

The royal chieftain, the parasites and whole gang of International rabble rousers are going to plead to the almighty nothing in his great temple to give praise for 3 million pounds. I promise you, the moment they begin to pray I will bring the whole edifice down on their unworthy heads. [...]".
