Deep Red (1994 TV Movie)
6/10
A Very Good Entertainment
20 February 2004
In a space war, a tiny spaceship is hit by another one, falls on planet Earth into the hand of a little girl (Gracie) and penetrates her hand. Some time later, the private investigator Joe Keyes (Michael Biehn) is hired by a mother, who is under the protection of his former wife Monica (Joanna Pacula) together with her daughter Gracie (Lidsey Haun), to help her husband, the scientist Warren Rickman (Tobin Bell). Warren is being threatened by his colleague, Thomas Newmeyer (John de Lancie). Joe is divorced from Monica, and blames himself for the death of another mother and daughter who were under his protection. They were the wife and daughter of the detective Mack Waters (John Kapelos), and killed by a murderer Mack had put in jail. When Joe finds Warren, strange events happen and Joe decides to find Monica to realize what is happening and help her. A great mystery involving immortality and healing is disclosed along the story. This sci-fi movie is very intriguing, having a very different and unpredictable screenplay. It recalls a film noir, with narrative in off, dark and smoky places, with touches of `Blade Runner', and is a very good entertainment. With some improvement, it could have been an excellent movie. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): `Sangue Imortal' (‘Immortal Blood')
