A fascinating but flawed entry..., 25 September 2009
6/10
Author: cgyford from Ankara, Turkey

Series creator Mick Garris, of "The Stand " and "Desperation " fame, adapts his own short story about the ultimate romance in the realm of the senses as his psychologically twisted but surprisingly horror-lite entry in the show's first season that marks him out as a real master beyond sequels and Stephen King adaptations.

Henry Thomas provides a suitably shambolic central performance with the sensational Lucie Laurier as the object of his long-distance affections and able support from Stacy Grant, Leah Graham and genre veteran Matt Frewer on top comedic form as an ageing wannabe punk guitarist.

The master of masters builds the suspense slowly, perhaps a little too slowly, in this unconventional romance with an archetype of loneliness at its core, meaning that when the disappointingly conventional conclusion finally does arrive it feels a fast, furious and somewhat unfulfilling end to the affair.

I just kept tasting someone else's chocolate.
