And a made for TV movie too, this movie was good. the acting in it and the plot was just so great. this one of the only movies I've seen that I felt warped my mind because after seeing it I was afraid of Reaper coming to kill me through my computer screen. There were just a few minor things wrong with this movie, but it's very easily over looked.Antonio Sabbato Jr did an excellent role in this movie along with Janine Turner and Robert Wagner. this movie just has so much suspense and it made me wanting more because I never thought a low budget TV movie could be so powerful. After viewing this I read the novel this movie was based on (four times) and it too kicked was great. If you ever see this movie come on TV, I'd watch it. The effects in this movie were pretty well done, I honestly don't know what a live calcifying human would look like but with the way the FX team did this movie I was impressed and all it shows is that all these bad made for TV movies out there with low budgets shouldn't suck so bad.watch it. It's really good, no really, it is!

OK, the movie is good but I give it a 1 because the idea of a computer virus becoming an organic virus is pure fairy tale. This kind of crap just adds to those uncomputer savvy moron's paranoid delusions that a computer virus is exactly like an organic virus. First of all, strings of code and dozens of 1s and 0s add up to computer virus. An organic virus is much more complex, even though it's way tinier. Though, it's considered one of the simplest forms in the universe, organic virus's attach burrow into your cells and attach themselves to the RNA, then change your own RNA code. Explain to me how something like that could be processed from a monitor? Maybe the radiation has some effect on the user's cornea that turns your eyeballs into these viruses? I could see that, but obviously, the writer didn't think of that.

I remember TBS playing this movie about 20 times following it's premiere. I caught it twice... Not because the movie was good, but because it was semi-interesting and I had nothing better to do at the time.The plot is simple. A new cable system that is starting to be used in various electronics including TV-conferencing, ATMs, all the way to cable television systems. It starts mysteriously killing people. Two random people have to investigate this. And, I'm not giving you any major spoilers, cause you learn all of this in the first 15 minutes (if not 5 minutes).The special effects are pretty cool, considering this is a TV-movie. The opening scene is really good. The acting is pretty bad, though. I never even heard of the actor/actress who played the protagonists before seeing this movie. Neither did a really convincing portrayal. The screenwriter of this movie goofed up, a lot. This probably accounted for the aforementioned bad acting (at least part of it). The plot is underdeveloped and predictable. But, Janine is HOT, so, that kind of made up for the movie's bad points.Overall, entertaining movie. Don't come into with high expectations, you won't be that disappointed. Funny how TBS whored this movie when they first made it, but i don't think they've played it since.Rating: 6/10

I don't know why I'm writing a review for this but I wanted to say how strange this film was. It was actually very bad, but for some reason it was too interesting not too keep watching the whole thing. It's about all these mysterious deaths caused by a signal from a cable television box, and we know this all along so I'm not spoiling anything. The acting is reasonable, if you don't count the terrible performance (as always) from Antonio Sabato Jr. My advice is watch this because it will undoubtedly draw you in with its storyline but don't expect anything above average.
