Yeah, it was absolute crap.
I don't recall 20 things (it was just terrible overall), but I do remember a phone conversation that was pretty wacky. She said something very calm, then screamed and yelled "Who are you???" for no apparent reason. Maybe it had some heavy editing done?
My memory is fuzzy (it's not really worth remembering), except that this movie was one of those where you come out of the theater and think about the other things you could have done with your life instead of waste it on this trashy flick. -

Everybody had a mysterious operating system on their computers. At first, I thought that Denise was a Linux freak, but then everybody had that OS! Also, hemophiliacs can die extremely easily. What surprised me was her ability to clot her blood when that dude was torturing her. She should've kept on a-bleedin'. They also tried to make a freaky little kid with that little girl, but she was just not freaky.

That why I stay at home and watch this crap on TV,can't reveal how, but I don't pay for the vitriol on the tube either. With gas at appx. $3.50 a gal. It makes even less sense to go to a theater unless it's something I really wanna see on the Big Screen,otherwise it's HBO on the old 30" Tuba! Ha! LOL

The worse thing about this whole movie was the filming. And not just the fact that it was al very dark, but, for example, when they see the girl or whatever, and they start seeing weird things. That was SO badly done, it was one big flash in front of your eyes, wich gave me a very bad headache.
And i was wondering, in the last scene of the film, she woman lays on the bed with the cat, the pone rings, she pickes up, but no-one is no the other side. She hangs up and lays back on the bed. End Movie.
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT GOOD FOR?
And also, the site belonged to the doctor, right? Every subscriber could see what he was doing with the blond girl. But in the end, the site suddenly belongs to Jeany, or whatever her name was.
It all sucked. -

I think the funniest thing about this entire movie was how whenever the girl detective got that phone call and she screamed leave me alone then proceeded to yell what do u want from mehmmmmm kind of a double standard? Oh and i have a question.so if they see visions of what they are afraid of then wat was the guy detective afraid of? Sideway walls?

- They claim the daughter's a hemophilliac. Boy, is she a slight rarity in genetics. XD;;;
- Everything else I can't think of at the moment and/or what everybody else has said.
- Never should have been made. Period. v_v;;;

I agree with a lot of you, but I had a huge problem with the Natasha McElhone character and the purpose (or lack thereof) she served. First and foremost, after it was established that the German students didn't die from some mysterious contagion, why the hell would a Department of Health worker help solve a string of murders that were beyond her expertise? I just hate how they set up the character to get involved in the case.
There are few things as fetching as a bruised ego on a beautiful angel. -

- The design of the web site (it looks hilariously cheesy and stupid)
- Stephen Rea's acting (almost baffling how awful he is here)
- Instead of making it an interesting mystery, the villain is revealed in the clumsiest way possible.
- Almost every attempt at being scary fails.
- If you hear a stranger out-of-nowhere offer you an acting gig, you apparently fall for it!
- Terrible special effects.
- The pacing (it was feeling so slow sometimes it was like a joke)
- The endless idiotic lines ("How enticing the smell of cheap perfume can be or is that fear?)
- The stupid occurring gigantic white ball.
- THE ENDING!!!!!!!!!
That's what I can think of for the moment.

the ending bugged the hell out of me. after terry saves the blonde girl from the doctor, she just leaves her on the floor, naked and traumatized, by the doctor's torture stuff and escapes with the guy detective. a normal person would have given her a jacket, helped her out of that dungeon, and took her to the police station or hospital. she just goes home and lays on her bed with a cat.
the end.
