4.0 out of 5 stars
A sexy, psychological thriller., June 28, 2001
I bought this dvd because I have always enjoyed other interactive dvds such as Dragon's Lair and Space Ace. I was not disappointed with this purchase. The story had a hold on me from the start. Especially when both of the gorgeous women in this feature were introduced. The acting is quite good and there are plenty of twists and turns in the plot. Some parts of the movie play out kind of like a Cinemax feature. So if you are offended by mature themes or nudity, then don't buy this.
This dvd is entertaining and worth the purchase. The only complaints I have are the following...
-Since this was originally designed as a pc game, it is rather lengthy. I expected to be finished with it in a couple of hours...wrong. It took me at least 4.5 hours to complete it.
-At the end of each section, you are asked a series of psychological questions. Sometimes the number of questions was a bit excessive.
Other than that, this dvd is brilliant. I can't wait to purchase others like it.

This is a test, April 11, 2003
This is a psychological test. Just as in cardiology there are "resting" and "stress" tests, this is a psychological "stress test." You will be bombarded with emotionally charged events and then asked your opinion of them.
For the best enjoyment value, look at it as a test, rather than as a "game" or a "movie."
This also has high enjoyment value if you can get your friends to play it. The voyeurism level is much higher than in a traditional movie - you not only watch the action, you sneak around between scenes and look into drawers, read diaries and private e-mails, etc. When you use this DVD on your friends, you get to watch -them- doing it.

Seductive and Psychological Thriller, May 5, 1999
By A Customer
From the first scene of the movie to the last I found myself reaching for the remote to keep searching for all of the information I could obtain about the Overton family. The acting was minimal but Hurt does a good job of persuading the audience to look beyond the acting skills and fall into the trance of Allison and the mystery surrounding Jody, their young daughter who was in a car accident 6 months prior to the movie. Through each room and each character the movie develops and becomes almost addictive. The profiles are almost scary they are so accurate. You must view this film at least once if not more!
