Trying to find a film....
« on: May 12, 2008, 02:18:01 pm »
I'm trying to find a film, I dont know it's name, of course;

One scene involved a man looking at a nuclear plants computer with a webcam attached. He had focused his attention on something else, the webcam watched this and did something to the nuclear plant, when his attention returned to the screen, the computer changed back to what he was doing then looking away again, the computer changed back to trying to sabotage the facilty.

I want to see this film again, but I don't know the name!

Been racking my brains on this one since you posted Dante, and doing some digging around with keywords on IMDb but nothing yet, sorry...

Will keep thinking though.

Found it!

'TERMINAL ERROR'

Not bad, not exactly something you'd like to watch over and over, and perhaps the only film with Microsoft Sam in it :P

What can I say? Ether I've a passion for terrible films, or most films that deal with my preferred topics are rubbish :P


Just you wait, theres a movie adaptation of 'The Singulairty is Near' which should be making people groan :P

Agreed, the narrator definitely makes it out to be a cheesy, "B" flick. A real shame since
the cast and plot seem quite workable.

I still might check it out. Thanks for the info!!

Yeah, they (Hollywood) are especially good at making "remakes" of old classics - real talent there! (NOT).

I think the Matrix trilogy and The Enemy of the State and Minority Report were some original eye-opening films.
Of course there were other in the past that could fall into the same sentence but these three come to mind for now.

Good stuff!

If Dante wants to see a remake of the Terminator Series (actually a cheap attempt) in a low cost, badly written and
poorly acted file, then by all means get a copy of Future War, starring Daniel Bernhardt (2004).

The best thing about it is you can usually find it at any Dollar Store in the discount rack!

You can hate me later!! ;D
