Well I finally got around to watching this movie. I had high hopes for it after seeing some reviews when it initially came out, but I get to see so few movies it took a while to percolate up my queue.
I have to say it did not really meet my expectations. It was a solid concept: creepy genetic engineering mixed with corporate profit pressures and an undertone of good-old Freudian psycho-sex; but it just didn't have the room to breathe. The ending was a bit horror cliche.
But the real reason I am posting it on the blog is because the villainous CEO in the movie was a pitch perfect French Canadian version of Carly Fiorina. I can't help but believe the character was modeled after her. In fact the movie would have been better with more of her in it.
Anyway, even with it's flaws, it still may be work a Netflix.

I usually only watch horror movies around Halloween, and this year, there weren't enough offerings on cable/OnDemand to enven tempt me for that.
I will check this one out when it plays on HBO eventually. Will keep an eye out for the scary Carly look alike then ... I don't think she was even in the trailers.
Mamaybe int he sequal, she could be a senator ... if either she OR the movie were a bit more successful? :)
