User Reviews

really very bad - nothing happens for most of the movie

I liked the premise, but the movie is really very bad.

The movie starts off with a woman approaching a door with some sort of monster or mutated human being behind it. Who that might be and how this scene relates to what follows doesn't become apparent for some time.

A librarian who has no luck with women is devoted to self-help books and videos, though they do him no good. He discovers a manuscript by a deceased local author that gives him psychic powers after he finishes reading it in one go. He becomes manipulative, and he starts losing his hair.

The movie is pretty uneventful until towards the end when the effects of the manuscript have really taken hold. It's not worth watching.
