I happened across this while browsing through the older sci-fi releases in a video store and decided to check it out because it featured Rutger Hauer and Wil Wheaton, two actors I enjoy. The first half of the movie is excellent with it's simple backgrounds and is driven by excellent dialogue and great acting (except by Nia Peeples who I found to be a bit flat and uninteresting). During the latter part though the story began to lose my interest and it became more obvious that this was a low budget movie. The story which is basically a modern updating of Frankenstein was a good idea in theory and I think that they got a lot of it right but they really needed to take it in a different direction with the ending. Still, for what it is it's worth watching at least once if only for Rutger, Wil, or some of the great dialogue.
