This film begins with a beautiful young model by the name of "Lisa Convey" (Terri Welles) presenting a list to a noted Beverly Hills plastic surgeon named "Dr. Larry Roberts" (Albert Finney) detailing several very minor alterations she wants done for her. At first, Dr. Roberts is bewildered by her request since she is quite beautiful and doesn't seem to need any surgery at all. It then turns out that she needs the cosmetic surgery in order to do a commercial for a local corporation known as Digital Matrix. So because of her insistence-and the fear than another plastic surgeon of lesser ability might become her next option--he eventually consents to her request. Not long after that a homicide detective by the name of "Lieutenant Masters" (Dorian Harewood) comes to his office and tells him that Lisa has died in what appears to be a suicide attempt. However, since this is the third patient that Dr. Roberts has recently performed surgery on, the case has been flagged as somewhat suspicious. That said, when another model by the name of "Cindy Fairmont" (Susan Dey) arrives with her own list of alterations he becomes concerned and decides to investigate this situation on his own-and what he discovers is a bizarre plot that puts both of their lives in immediate danger. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was an interesting science-fiction film which had some good mystery and a little humor throughout as well. On that note, however, while I found the ending to be somewhat amusing it also seemed to lessen the overall suspense and thereby weaken the overall effect to a degree. Be that as it may, this rather strange film had its moments and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.
