      Ian G Inept, poorly conceived, ridiculously cast. Directed so poorly that it's possible a stooge like me might have done better. Every scene is gloomily dark with dripping water permeating buildings, and plenty of bedraggled rats, cats, and freaks to keep things popping along. It's the present, with 200 year old constructed reassemblages of parts of people walking among us. Who seem to like living in - did I say "living" in? Oops. Apartments with darkness, drips, cats and rats all fighting fir camera time. And getting it. Cops find a murdered chap who it's found had two hearts and multiple upgrades fitted. By Victor, we assume. Frankenstein. He's survived a long time too. It's all a hopeless mess. I didn't watch it to its doubtlessly gross end, it was as truly dreadful as that. Being made for TV is no excuse. Scripts can be written - or they can be perpetrated. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/21/23 Full Review Steve D Some interesting ideas that work far better in Koontz's books. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review robert p What a horrible movie this was. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It was a better book, TY D.K. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member All kinds of bad. No wonder Koontz and Scorsese pulled their names from the title, it's nowhere close to the books. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Could've been better. All made-for-TV movies could be. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
