This movie demands your full attention from beginning to end! If you blink, you'll miss an intricate detail in this well crafted science fiction thriller. Michael Biehn's absolutely brilliant protrayal of the main character, Joe Keyes, bonds you with Keyes until you think you're immersed in the action. John de Lancie, Star Trek's Q, plays the villian with credibility and style. As the film splices it's way to its climax, all the pieces fall together and leave you amazed at the brilliance of the plot and it's stylish filming. You'll want to hit the rewind button and rewatch it again with your eyes unscaled! This film doesn't disappoint the first time nor the fifty-first time!

this whole movie was.... well...about red.
The concept sounded interesting since I like sci-fi and fantasy movies. Deep red is a substance that can make you immortal. A little girl has it in her body, and there are evil scientists who are out to get her. Even this simple storyline could have been made so much more interesting if (1) they did not spend a major portion of the movie just using the word "deep red"... it sounds cheesy after a while (2) the action scenes were better shot (3) they added some sidelines to the story rather than continuing with the monotonous main thread.

Joe Keyes (Michael Beihm) is hired to find a missing husband and help him kill someone. He does his job too well and finds himself involved a mystery that involved indestructible ice-cream men and only gets weirder from their.

However you will recognize the mystery and the bad guy (John de Lancie) from Star Trek. And the dialog as a substandard Sam Spade.

when i bought this i thought it was the argento film but its just some 90's sci-fi action with some bad 3D effects
