Neat story with terrific acting., 23 October 2003
10/10
Author: acearms from San Antonio, Texas

The plot is believable and the actors are perfect for their parts. This is one of the best I've seen William McNamara in for some time and he was simply great. Maria Pitillo was outstanding as the girl with a medical problem seeking spiritual help to over come it. Although the plot was some what predictable, the ending left you hanging to see if Pitillo's character was really alive or dead back in spirit form. Bravo, bravo, bravo for this one and I'll watch it again. You should too.
