DEAD ZONE
Alakazam Magic are very proud to announce the forthcoming release of what we believe is the coolest Mentalism routine ever! After more than two years of planning and prototypes we have finally cracked it with the ultimate one-man version of Andy Nyman's classic effect. For those of you not familiar with the Dead Zone plot here is what the audience sees: A spectator is invited to the stage to help test your abilities in the new defence technique known as "Dead Zoning" and after explaining that it is a combination of heightened body language reading, plus the ability to imagine a 'Dead Zone' on the person you are looking at - in essence it allows you to know whether someone poses a threat to you just by looking at them. The technique is now taught to bodyguards, secret service agents and airport security personnel. At this point you explain that you imagine the "Dead Zone" as a target and then proceed to stick a picture of a target onto the spectator then ask him to imagine that he is an assassin and draw his attention to the case on the table. You explain that it contains a selection of weapons that may be used by an assassin and ask him to open the case and take a look inside. You turn your back to the spectator & instruct the spectator to place each of the weapons into his pockets. Once done, you turn to face him and ask him to walk away from you. After a couple of steps you stop him and by staring at the 'Dead Zone' you CORRECTLY reveal which weapons are in which pocket! As the applause fades you explain that sometimes if you really tune into the 'Dead Zone' you can know what is going to happen before the thoughts even enter the other persons head. You ask him to remove the 'Dead Zone' target that you stuck on him & open it up. It is a prediction that correctly states which of the weapons he would place in which pockets with perfect, 100% accuracy every time! Dead Zone Pro is truly geared towards the professional performer and each unit has been carefully hand crafted to ensure both quality and reliability. Due to these factors, we are only able to initially offer ten complete units that will be available towards the end of February for collection at the Blackpool convention or immediate Special Delivery shipping upon the day of release. Each unit is precision made to the highest standard and comes complete with everything you need to perform this fantastic routine: Case & Weapons specially adapted by Christopher Taylor from Canada! Receiver with light or vibrate options! Three different targets to create a different outcome at repeat performances! Full instructions and professional script by Andy Nyman! Price: £799.99 * Now I love the verson on the dvd, take it from the price that this now uses some very clever electronics, looks very immpressive.........go check out the pictures it looks amazing!!! |

You can do the ungimmicked version from the Get Nyman DVD for a fraction of the price.
But man, those are some cool toys.

You can also do this with 8th Sense and it will be a lot cheaper.

Hi Guys,
I use to perform the version from the DVD but wanted a one man version. The Pro version is what I came up with. It's totally self contained so no need to rig the table in advance. If I am out performing close up mentalism I usually have this in the boot of my car just in case they want a little bit of stand up. The props are so cool and every guy wants to be James Bond! I know this effect will not suit everyone but for those of you who do perform on stage or in a parlour situation this is a real killer. Peter |

Just to put you in thr picture we are not only making 10 units. Each unit is put together by hand and this does take some time. So we are expecing to have 3-5 units per month after the first batch.
Regards Peter |

I was in the shop with Peter and they guys today and got to see one of these up close! I WANT ONE!!! To put it pure and simple! This is a really cool piece of kit, and after A) Seeing the craftsmanship first hand and B) Being shown the 'inner workings' if you could call them that, I have to say this is one of the best and strongest pieces of mentalism I have EVER SEEN!
If I had £800 on me right now, I would not hesitate to get one! I would even pay up to £1000! This really is top notch work, and is set to go in an instant! I don't want to give too much away, but already for me this is up with the best releases of 2007, and I can still see it being there in 11 months time! Incredibly clever, incredibly practical and all looks professional. Peter's presentation as well for the effect plays this effect so much bigger to the audience, and I can't even imagine the type of response this will get at a show! Highest recommendations! |

Obviously you've never seen an 8th Sense Christopher. Buy an 8th Sense and you can do this trick for half the price and you will also get a thumper system too. You can even use your choice of up to 5 weapons too and install the thing into a briefcase in 2 minutes.

Bilbo Baggins, I'm the wrong person to ask. You are better off asking Shrink.
I happen to think that the device is great and highly underrated. |

Don, thanks for bringing my interest to 8th sense, but I like Dean Zone. I like the effect, the way it is constructed, and the routine with the kicker ending makes it unique in its own way. If you want to use 8th sense for this then good, but I have seen a Dean Zone Pro in person and don't think it could be beaten, and I think Peter and the team will be very proud of this release and so they should!

Sounds great.
Can the spec., use any pocket, in any order, or 2 things in the same pocket even? Wondering how much freedom they have in their choice?

Piers,
This is the same effect as the standard Dead Zone but is self contained. Regards Peter |
