NotesStarts off plausibly and with some interest but degrades into the cliched woman faces horror stuff. The twist is that both victim and pursuer are in wheelchairs. They're also fitness fanatics. It's beautiful people again with nothing impeding the 'heroine's' life, everything is automated and she has a really neat wheelchair which has extending arms to help her stand-up. This is shown as giving her access to the fridge which more sensibly should have been set lower. But I guess if you're in America you've got to have a fridge the size of a small barn or you won't feel normal. This film is even bad as a thriller.
