This movie was hands down the funniest movie I've seen in a long time. I laughed so hard at times that I started coughing and almost crapped my pants.

While reading some of the posts on this board, I'm under the impression that too many people in this world take movies too seriously. I mean, how can you have a problem with a shark in the room when the main character has "super" powers? Aren't both pretty unbelievable?

I just thought this movie was hilariously funny, like after the shark fell out the window, Hannah says, "Why did G Girl throw a shark at us? Did you do something wrong?" I think I rewound that 3 times to listen to it again.

10/10

This movie came on the LifeTime network on Sunday, June 11th. I seen Jolene Blalock on a commercial for the movie sometime last week and I set my DVR to record it. She was the reason why I wanted to watch the movie.

I Dream of Murder centers around a psychiatrist, played remarkably well by Jolene Blalock of Star Trek: Enterprise. She has reoccurring nightmares of an old high school boyfriend that died in a car crash, or so she believes. It's a little hard to tell with the dream/flashbacks because each one is different and at one point, she mentions that the boyfriend's body was never found and that her ex had a way of disappearing and showing up unannounced. She has questioned whether his body was thrown from the vehicle.

The title of the movie comes from one of her patients. Her patient tells her about a dream in which she was strangled in an alley. Hours later, her dreams became reality. Up until this point, the patient tells Dr. Jo (Blalock) about her bad marriage and a ex-boyfriend that she dated in high school that has recently came back into her life.

SPOILERS: I won't reveal all spoilers, just pointing out some things.

The dead patient had told Dr. Jo about a lover that has returned in her life, however, she is a married woman and her husband is an alcoholic and is starting to turn violent. After the patient's death, Jo pays her ex-lover a visit to "console" him. Afterwards, the husband is very irate and crank calls Jo, calls her Bitch and says she's going to pay. The plot is very very thin and transparent. You can see where the story is leading well before it happens. I really don't need to explain what happens with the ex-lover and the husband; whatever you can imagine, it's probably true.

The movie ends with a twist, however, I seen it coming a mile away. IMO, Jolene Blalock is a fine actress. Her acting was top notch compared to the other actors, who most seemed very wooden and non-emotional, especially the actor who played her husband and the actor that played the detective investigating the murder. Terrible performances by these two guys.

Overall, 5 out of 10. This movie was average at best.

I just rented this DVD today and was quite surprised that they actually have flying Graboids now (flying shriekers). I wonder if the creators of this movie actual seen my comments on IMDB under Tremors 2 when I said that I hope there's a 3rd installment and this time have flying graboids. If they didn't read it, this is quite a coincidence. What can I do for an encore? Predict that the next Graboids be like those bugs in Mimic and have Tremors 4's Graboids mimic humans? Naw, that would be stupid.

Very good CGI effects this time around but the story line was pretty weak. I also couldn't get into the characters like Tremors 2, which is my all time favorite.
