Papers mysteriously burn, curtains suddenly ignite and the class president inexplicably bursts into flame. There's something evil happening at Salem's Helen Page School and only a defrocked minister-turned-exorcist (James Farentino) can save the students from a fiery fate. Co-starring Joan Hackett and highlighted by an eerie score from two-time Oscar? winner* Leonard Rosenman, The Possessed also features a attention-grabbing turn by Harrison Ford as the school's hunky biology teacher. Originally broadcast on May 1, 1977, the film aired just a few short weeks before Star Wars would make him a household name.
