Review – Playback

This movie actually took me by surprise. Judging by the description, I was expecting another “idiot with a camcorder” production. It turned out to have a bigger budget, better production values and even a star or two (assuming Christian Slater counts as a star at this point in his career). The story, on the other hand, is pure leftovers. A murderer returns from the grave and resumes his strange MO of using a camcorder to suck out souls (mostly from teenagers). Mildly amusing
