If you are looking for a really bad movie you just wanna watch to make the time pass, this is the movie for you. It's not very exciting. After watching a few minutes you'll figure out what's gonna happen next and how it's all gonna end. You won't get tricked. They feed you the whole story with a little spoon. It's not that hard. The movie is about a woman who lives by drawing criminal faces. A girl get taken away and when she gets back she explains the face for the drawer. The drawer get shocked when she sees the face she just drew. It's the face of her stepfather that died many years ago. But soon she discovers he's not really dead. He's after her. She tells that to the police man. They fall in love. How many times haven't we seen that before? The story is weak, the acting is bad, and there's really no point in the story at all. I really don't recommend this movie.

Always like the great acting of Sean Young,(Gwen), and in this picture she does a fantastic job as an sketch artist along with some Spiritual Powers which help her seek out the EVIL that seems to haunt her and Brighton Hertford,(Bria), a little girl who has been abused and needs help. However, Gwen also has some hidden secrets in her past childhood which also seem to haunt her through out the picture. There is a great scene in the picture where Bria manages to hand Gwen a gun under the table and all Hell breaks loose. Gwen does draw a wrong sketch of a man that Bria does not seem to recognize and it does give the film more suspense. If you want to get away from watching the World News for awhile, this is a great film that will entertain and will keep your interest right to the very END. Enjoy!

Oh this is ridiculous; sketch artist assigned to investigate and help locate an abductor just happens to have a past where her relative may be the culprit; same old trash....she and the lead actor get romantically involved, the chief suspect maybe ain't really involved and so on.....bad script, bad acting. The whole plot is ludicrous and preposterous,plus being totally unrealistic. When I saw the cliched scene of of the phone not working and our heroine looking at the receiver in ham fashion,I knew then this was a sure-fire 1 out of 10.

This movie is about a female sketch-artist who is called out to a small rural town where a little girl has been kidnapped and may give a description of the perpetrator. The sheriff suspects he may have been involved in more, and the sketch-artist must confront horrors from her own past.This is actually a pretty good, low-budget thriller. Sean Young is great, and William Moses (of Perry Mason fame) is sympathetic.The movie's main achievement is avoiding the traps of improbability (there's only one) and cheap scares, where lesser well-thought out movies go for the Michael Myers/Jason Voorhees thing of the killer being everywhere.Sean Young acts well and believably - what happened to her career, though, which seemed so promising at the time she had a small role in Wall Street and Blade Runner. She needs to pick movies with more potential.
