Has anyone seen this? It is direct to home video which I'm sure is why it isn't getting any buzz but I heard about it on an interview on slice of sci fi it sounds VERY COOL!

No special effects, no big budget, just cool story and dialogue.

The producers say that it is availble at best buy, target, wal-mart (but some people have had a hard time finding it) and nextflix has it as well. The folks on slice of sci fi raved about it so much that I'm going to see if I can find it instead of renting it.

Here is the IMDB entry 8.4 stars, not bad.

Looks really good, but I don't like John Billingsley much.

It looks decent. I just added it to my blockbuster que, so I will get to it eventually.

An ad banner for it caught my eye, and when I read about it, the story intrigued me enough to watch it. I enjoyed it a lot. Love 'talking movies' like Hurlyburly and this one. Highly recommended!

I've had it in my Amazon shopping cart for a few weeks. Next time I need to bring my total to $25+ for free shipping, I'm going to get it.
