Awful, just awful. I realize that this was originally shot as a one-hour series, but they apparently didn't have enough material between what episodes they shot to put together a movie of any worth.
To begin with, it's boring...terribly boring. Nothing happens. Even the murder scenes (wherein the "bodies" often blink while the camera moves over them) are boring. Short scenes between the male and female lead seem to go on forever.
Next, a large portion of the film is "filler". The opening and credit montage is several minutes long and it just depicts a series of "visions" or "manifestations" in jump-shots. You have no idea what you're watching, because there's been no story or plot yet, and eventually the shots begin to cycle...guy with a green light shining up over his face, bloody murder victim on the rug, people standing in a dark room, and then back again to the guy with the green light in his face. It's obvious that they director had to fill in 15 minutes or so throughout the film to make it even as long as it was.
Finally, the story (what little there is) stinks. The characters make pronouncements that are unwarranted, perform contradictorily to what their stated beliefs are, and just basically talk about anything and everything without coming to any conclusion.
Now, I like a lot of bad movies. At least bad movies often keep your interest. This movie, however, is snore-inducing.
Avoid it at all costs.
