Jack Curtis
DISTORTED THOUGHTS
£20 (Approx. $33US)
THE BLURB:
Jack Curtis is a professional mentalist from the UK. This
book is a collection of Jack�s favourite mentalism routines
and theories that he uses personally on a regular basis.
Every effect is very easy to perform, however, the book
requires an advanced knowledge in the field of mentalism and
is not written with the beginner in mind.
Contents:
Extra Subliminal Persuasion
Instantly resetting close up mentalism using five ESP cards
contained in five small envelopes.
Red Sky in the Morning
NLP playing card divination with a kicker ending.
Digital Video Prediction (DVP)
A multiple out solution for the stage performer. (formally
sold as a download with the same title for �10)
H2O
A three phase routine using an empty glass and a jug of
water.
Blank
Subliminal influence demonstrated with playing cards. A
quick, easy and effective opener.
Law of Attraction
A beautiful routine using a stack of business cards that
brings the participant closer to a loved one.
The book also includes essays about why playing cards should
never be taken for granted and why everything you know about
approaching tables in a walk around environment is wrong.
MY COMMENTS:
Though there are no new principles or breakthoughs, this is
a solid collection of fresh routines and I liked quite a few
of them. Most of these routines are close-up. H20 is
probably my favorite of the six. It requires you to have
some envelopes that must be prepared, but if you don't mind
that, the payoff is quite strong for this unique,
multi-phased routine. Ironically, since I really don't like
to prepare stuff, I probably won't ever use it, but I still
like it. Law of Attraction is a great business card effect
that I really like, although it does border a bit on mental
magic. Of all the effects in this book, this is the one
that I will probably use and often. I also like Blank a
lot, though again, personally, since it requires an item I
don't usually have on me, I may not be doing it often.
There are also some thoughts on using playing cards and on
approaching tables. This latter idea had some very
practical info that I found quite useful, though table
hopping is not something I do. This 75 page, 6"x9"
(approx.) book is obviously a labor of love and it's obvious
these routines have been performed and polished. I really
enjoyed reading this and definitely recommend this.
