People love to see death. Why do you think the ratings are so high on
reality disaster shows?
Assigned to gather the clues behind why site surfer victims are appearing all over New York City with a frozen shell-shocked look plastered on their departed faces, detective Mike Reilly (Stephen Dorff) teams up with Department of Health inspector Terry Huston (Natascha McElhon) to unravel this strange mystery. Thanks to a forensic specialist, the determined duo uncover a critical connection between the victims' tainted computer hard drive and a website called Feardomcom?the cyberspace center where all the death-related chaos seems to be taking place.
Both Reilly and Huston decide to bravely
investigate this notorious website despite realizing how dangerous it really is.
And of course the results are inevitably tragic. The probing pair eventually
succumb to some physical and psychological complications (cold sweats,
hallucinations, paranoid dellusions, etc.)
This unsolved crucial criminal case involves an elusive suspect with a
misguided motive that Reilly believes may be his old nemesis Dr. Alistair Pratt. Pratt, a smooth-operating
serial killer who harbours a
bizarre refreshing feeling about the romanticism of murder and its initial
mayhem, is Reilly's intended target and with good reason. Apparently Pratt is
the host of this scabrous interactive cyber-based forum where he slices and
dices his controllable female guinea pigs as online subscribers participate in
unexplainable hypnotic, chilling mode.Can Reilly and Huston survive???? Or will
they add to the growing list of victims.
