- TriviaTwo versions of the movie were shot. The first in early 1997 which featured the director Ron Bonk (acting under Chris Irvine) cast as the cameraman Rudy Reynolds with Debbie Rochon, Thomas Minlon, Tina Krause and Jerry O'Sullivan. The movie was re-shot in 1999 with a slew of different actors of Jason Reed, Lisa Chelezna, Chrissy Frick, and Bob Fullenbaum in a re-telling of the same story. Both versions were directed and photographed by Ron Bonk.

Featured review
A truly insipidly made... um film?
The objective breakdown:
Cinematography: Non-existent. It is unknown what this movie was shot with but what was edited was not worth the effort. The individual shooting the film did not know how to focus the equipment. You can essentially attain a headache by attempting to view. Color is horrid, shots not blocked. I would liken to compare to a first effort by a person that knows nothing of the film process and received a cameras for their birthday.
Sound: Horrendous: They either used one microphone and just planted it in one location or multiple mics and not configured correctly. The amplitude of a voice will go from too loud to so soft you can barely hear and back again. Try and understand the reception from the walkie talkies.
Music: There is none. You would think the creator would have known someone that could have created a little mood music and loop it incessantly like so many other bad movies.
Acting: Stupefying: it is painfully obvious that no one is an actor. One would think at least one person would at least be passable. This is what one gets when one has no money and friends that you believe can act or you spent money and have no clue what talent is.
Script: Your brain will disengage within a matter of minutes. The writer loses focus and just rambles from one thing to another. We are subjected to idiotic conversations that are supposed to be thought provoking but are the lamest and non logical arguments one hears constantly. I do love the comment about psychics solving crimes, you can read about it in the National Inquirer! Now that line made me laugh!
Funny that they mention "Purgatory" because this is what I classify this movie as. It is a "Purgatory" or "Limbo". It has absolutely no redeeming quality to it what so ever. It is not passable and it does not provide any amusement in being so incompetently made. Do NOT waste time from your life viewing this piece of flotsam.
