1997 - 80m.

Low-budget independent fare set in the near future where the world lives on the internet has computer repairman Joseph (Brian Campbell) getting caught-up with a God-like figure who wants him to unleash a computer virus and bring humanity to its end.

Literate-minded but slow-paced effort has an interesting premise and some good ideas but falls short due to some low-grade acting and the fact it's really not that entertaining.

Lots of amusing touches (such as the "Vampire Girlfriend Roomates Part 5" part), an at times effective musical score and one shocking car accident helps keep this from sinking although it's too lesiurely paced to work.

A potientially good idea that misses.
