Warning: Spoilers
I don't think movies -- even made-for-TV movie shot in Canada -- can get much lower than this.

The direction and editing are very poor, the special effects worse than humdrum, the acting egregious, and the plot unfathomable.

The only person involved in the production who seems to know what he was about was the photographer. And what he was forced to photograph is just plain bad. Well, I should add that David Shamate as an inquiring reporter brings some personality to his role. He's the only one who does.

Algonquin Provincial Park, where I once spent the night in the back seat of my car, is Yellowstone National Park or somewhere, except that it's anything but. There are no real geysers, no lavender rock formations, no Yellowstone Falls, only Ontario late in a dreary gray Canadian winter, a place where the sun never shines.

I won't go on about it. It's not worth another word.
