A state of the art elevator system starts to go haywire and kill people after being struck by lightning...almost like it has a mind of it's own.
Meanwhile, an elevator repairman and local journalist have teamed up to figure out what is going on.
It seems the elevator company is trying to cover something up.
After a little digging, they reveal that the Japanese company responsible for designing the electrical components of the lift system, have developed a bio-chip: a biological computer chip that is known to become endowed with artificial intelligence.
Which might explain a lot...if they can manage to stop the conspiracy...before they become it's next victims...
This film really plays off the paranoia of the times- a fear of impending doom from the computer apocalypse, sort of thing.
And it's not that great. It's pretty slow moving, the special effects are kinda lame, and the kill scenes are pretty anti-climactic.
I'm not sure what you can expect though...there are only so many ways an elevator can kill somebody.
5.5 out of 10.
