Once they start dying in mysterious circumstances, Alex works out that Death has a design on them. And what is more, he knows the order in which they are going to go. In many ways, this is an improvement on loonies in fancy dress. Death arranges elaborate domestic accidents, without having to speak lines, or look sexy in black. The young actors fit their stereotypes.
Death has an arsenal of lethal possibilities.
The Effects Dept love it. If you sat through The Sixth Sense and didn't feel cheated at the end, you'll have no difficulty with this. Sawa is engagingly unshowy and Larter looks terrific no matter what the dark force does. Copyright 1997-2001 insideout.co.uk. All rights reserved.
