4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly good, January 7, 2003

This review is from: Dead Air [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I found myself enjoying this movie more than I expected. It is basically one of countless rip-offs of Play Misty for Me, but it is well made. I thought Gregory Hines was excellent as a talented big city radio DJ making a fresh start in a small town.
Trouble is, he's got a maniac fan who keeps calling in and the bodies start piling up. There are plenty of characters to cast suspicion on, and the plot keeps you guessing until the end.
Debrah Farentino (NYPD Blue) is always nice to look at and and makes a satisfactory, if somewhat superficial, supporting character...

3.0 out of 5 stars Relatively ordinary thriller, nice twist at the end, April 15, 1999

This review is from: Dead Air [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This turned out to be a rather ordinary thriller, though the ending was more interesting than the rest of the movie indicated. Gregory Hines wasn't the best choice for the lead role, he seems more whiney than anything else, but the rest of the cast was good. Michael Harris shines in a small role; he was very under-utilized here. A definite waste of talent. But I still enjoyed the movie, particularly the conclusion.
