I remember TBS playing this movie about 20 times following it's premiere. I caught it twice... Not because the movie was good, but because it was semi-interesting and I had nothing better to do at the time.
The plot is simple. A new cable system that is starting to be used in various electronics including TV-conferencing, ATMs, all the way to cable television systems. It starts mysteriously killing people. Two random people have to investigate this. And, I'm not giving you any major spoilers, cause you learn all of this in the first 15 minutes (if not 5 minutes).
The special effects are pretty cool, considering this is a TV-movie. The opening scene is really good. The acting is pretty bad, though. I never even heard of the actor/actress who played the protagonists before seeing this movie. Neither did a really convincing portrayal. The screenwriter of this movie goofed up, a lot. This probably accounted for the aforementioned bad acting (at least part of it). The plot is underdeveloped and predictable. But, Janine is HOT, so, that kind of made up for the movie's bad points.
Overall, entertaining movie. Don't come into with high expectations, you won't be that disappointed. Funny how TBS whored this movie when they first made it, but i don't think they've played it since.
Rating: 6/10
