Suspect Device is not a good movie, but it's not a *bad* bad movie. It's surprisingly riveting as you're watching it, but when the credits start rolling, you suddenly realize nothing you've just seen made any sense whatsoever. It barely stops once it starts, that's why. It's obviously riffing off of Terminator 2, with a sort of Fugitive vibe.C Thomas Howell, a staple in these films, stars as a business worker for the government who is plagued by violent dreams of people around him getting killed, and one day he wakes up and they are. What you must do is run with this movie, and don't stop and question the plot holes or the whole film caves in.**1/2 out of 5

If you ignore the cheesy Corman-level of special effects, direction, and all things related to budget, this turns out to be a good movie. No, really. In the first 30, 40 Minutes you may shake your head in disbelief, how miscast the main character for it role is - but later on, the story gets going, and it all fits. Nice ideas, especially for the genre.OK, it is still a cheesy, cheap flick, but I am about certain, if it was filmed with expensive actors, effects and direction, there would be about nothing left of what makes it interesting. They simply wouldn't have dared to leave the good parts of the story intact, especially the ending (which I rather like).It's good for TV; it's an OK rental, it's a no-no for cinema - except for those trash-movie "vote your movies" nights, if you have those where you live. If it's on TV and you don't have anything else to do, watch it.

This one's a mind-blower! Constant suspense and action, along with some of the wildest and most entertaining plot twists I've ever seen in a TV-movie. Especially noteworthy are Stacey Travis and the actor who played the hippie mad scientist. Just when you think you've seen it all, the filmmakers throw in a nuclear blast just for fun! This is a four-star popcorn movie if there ever was one! Great writing makes this one a winner!

Lot of potential in plot but somehow it didn't flow as it should have (poor direction?). Good acting by C. Thomas and lead actress.
