This 1997 tv movie starts off with great promise only to quickly
sink. With lots of fanfare & build up, this movie looked very promising.
The first 30 minutes are fairly well done and pull you in, but then the
trouble starts ! Not only does all credibility goes right out the
window, but the actors involved seem to realize that they've gotten
themselves into an unbelievable mess. Like alot of the works of STEPHEN
KING where it is apparent that he got a terrific premise for a story,
only to drop the ball because he just didn't know where to go with it.
This tv movie appears to have been written by several different writers,
none of whom knowing what the others have done, so that continuity of
tone is downright impossible. You'd have better luck matching separate
plaids !
