This movie really only has one main cast member. He is Timothy Hutton. He has been in many films. A couple you may remember are Taps 1981 and French Kiss 1995. He is also in several films coming up 2008-09. Two are completed and five are still being produced. He actually plays two roles in the film. But I don't want to get ahead of myself, nor do I want to give away to much. Below I will tell you a little about the movie without ruining it for everyone.

This movie has a real mid - late 80's/ early 90s feel to it. It is set in Main. This only adds to the small town spooky feel. The movie is about a man who as a young boy likes to write. One day he is heading out to the bus when he passes out and is having seizures on the ground. Turns out he has something wrong in his brain. The doctors say it is something that must be removed. While doing this they find something that shocks them all. I don't want to ruin it so I will not say what. So they remove it and it says like 18 years later.

The man has become a writer. He made up a name and face for his writing though. He writes dirty stuff and does not want anyone to know. A man finds out who he is and threatens to let every know unless he gives him money. He tells him that he will call and let him know how much. The writer decides to come out and tell everyone thus allowing him to feel free and not have to pay. Well murders start to happen and the mans friend (who is the sheriff) thinks he has something to do with it. Also, his prints were found on stuff at the crime scene. I will not say anymore because I do not want to give anything away. Trust me though.... It gets weird.

The only problem I had with this movie was it kind of dragged on. It was about 2 hours. SO much could have been taken out to make it like an hour and forty minutes. You find out what is happening pretty fast and from then on it's just repeat, repeat, repeat. It will get old rather quickly. It is a neat movie that has some strange horror/sci-fi feel to it. I was at the movie store and I saw it sitting there. I had never seen it before so I decided to rent. I would say this was definitely more a rental than a buy. Go read the book if you want instead of seeing the movie first. Then watch the film and see what is different. I will probably never watch this again though. It just kind of hung there. Kind of telling you what would happen and kind of not. I guess it's like most books made into movie. There always just ok. Except Harry Potter. All though I finished the last book the day before I saw the movie and the movie was SO much worse than the book. It left out a lot of things that at the time I was reading seemed important. Not sure if this film did that or not but see the movie as well as read the book and you can decide.
