Genetic Killers

In this forgettable murder mystery.Melissa Gilbert is a young intern at an inner city hospital.Where a cover up is taking place.Young to middle age men are being used as guenna pigs for an insane experiment.Where they are being turned into terminally ill senior citizens by two renegade doctors(One of them is played by vetrain character actor:Perinel Roberts)who are tampering with the lives of these unfortunate people.Their plans are being thwarted by Dr.Gilbert and by another intern(played by Jack Scailia).Who is really an undercover Drug enforcement agent.Who is assigned to try and check out a lead into a supposed drug peddling scam.But he stumbles onto Roberts mad experiments and he finds out that Dr.Gilbert is getting too close to the villians'plot and she is putting her life and his investigation into jeopardy.The plot is very bare and predictable.And most of the actors in this film do little more than complain about Ms.Gilbert's tampering with a situation that should be left alone.Yet..Ms.Gilbert's performance is enjoyable and she keeps the story interesting.Even if we can guess how it will turn out.

I was suprised to be this thrilled by "Donor". It was, on the other hand, a bit easy to predict the outcome, and the suprise at the end wasn't so suprising. But as I said, it's thrilling and it has some Halloween 2 spirit. Look-a-like scenes is maybe a better way to put it, but this is such a different picture, so it would be wrong to compare them.

The actors are B-stuff. Never close too anything I would be impressed by, just people to fill the names in the script. And the old/young boy doesn't make me sad, he makes me sick. He's just ugly man!

But if you're up for some cheap thrills, I would recommend this movie, should you stumble over it on daytime TV.
