    OK TV Pilot

    I also believe this to have been done as a pilot for a possible TV series. On the plus side, the special effects are fairly well done and actually complement rather than overwhelm the somewhat thin storyline. On the negative side, the plot itself seems to have been meant to grow over the course of a hoped for TV series and therefore leaves a lot to be desired.

    One could hope that should a series ever arise from this project that it would be made for more liberal and mature audiences outside the U.S. Even with the film's obviously toned down and very brief sex and violence, the SciFi channel dares show it only *after midnight* in the States!

    Not very good

    A very cliched and quite dull film. It's only redeeming feature is an excellent performance by Kimberley Davies as the super sexy but evil villain, Regina. But even she can't hold your interest in what is a very weak script.

    Average

    The whole thing seems a bit half hearted. Only Kimberley Davies looks to be really puting the effort in. The rest of the cast are quite unbeliavable in their roles but the script lets them down badly.

    I'd say that it's a film for kids, but then there are drug references and a sex scene so it's hard to work out who this film was aimed at.

    Boring

    As some other users have already said, Kimberley Davies is excellent. She plays a "Buffy" type villain but the film is really quite bad. If you are a fan of hers then it's worth seeing but I found it very dull and not very entertaining.

    Standard fare, looks like a TV series pilot

    Okay special effects, but this is a standard good-vs-evil plot. It looks like a pilot for a TV series. This means it is rated PG, which prevents us from seeing more of the lovely Kimberley Davies, not to mention Gabrielle Fitzpatrick.
