Well this Canadian stinker done by the Canadian film development corporation had a great concept. I remember watching this film, after I finished grade 11, with my dad, and I thought what a great concept. I think of all the movies I've forgotten over the years, and this film is burnt into my memory. Electrocute annoying people by the phone, this would be great for thoes annoying telemarketers who usually phone during dinner. Well, that's besides the point, like most of the Canadian Film development movies of that era this film has an ok concept, but lacks in budget or effects. I like the opening scene with the kids running in the subway, its a good mood setter. It has a great concept like Scaners, and it looks like it too could have been filmed in Monteral.
