To me, the movie had the potential to be good, but it stopped just shy of being OK. It starts off with a businessman who is a total douche bag and he "almost" gets into an accident. After that, he starts seeing things and people who have already died. He meets up with people whom he's wronged in the past and sees how they have turned out and what happened to them. It's basically one of those types of movies where someone's dead and doesn't know it, and he has to right his wrongs within 24 hours. There's no sex or nudity. There's some cussing and some of the scenes could be frightening if you are sensitive to certain things. All in all, I wouldn't recommend this movie. Maybe the only time that I would is if you are desperate and don't mind if a movie puts you to sleep.

THIS MOVIE SUCKS DON'T BE DECEIVED! Probably not any spoilers because it's SO OBVIOUS. I'm compelled to write this review because 5 of the 6 reviews have obviously been written by cast members or friends of cast members and I fell for it. THIS MOVIE SUCKS DON'T BE DECEIVED!

The crux of the story is not dissimilar to A Christmas Carroll except far less scary or thrilling. A well off self absorbed and greedy man *almost* gets hit by a car at the start of the movie. The car stops just short of running him over and he continues on his way. It's super obvious that he was killed but he doesn't know it.

From that moment on he starts seeing people who have died, starting with a little girl who we find out later is his daughter, and when he touches them he sees a vision of their story. A number of the ghost's deaths can be attributed to his own selfish actions and the consequences they had on these people. Others are completely random. None of them are the least bit believable.

His dead mother's house was left to his brother who has a drug addiction. After receiving a letter stating that the house is to be foreclosed on he goes to confront his brother. He finds his brother shooting up in a closet and has an argument with him and leaves. For the next hour of the movie he sees more dead people.

Because he's seeing all this weird stuff he calls his doctor. His regular doc is not available so he has to talk to a different one. After seeing a series of weird events he returns to his brothers house and his brother tells him that they are both dead and he has 24 hours to change his behavior. He doesn't believe him and leaves. Cut to a church and he's standing outside when the doctor appears and tells him his brother was telling the truth and that his brother is not going to heaven because he overdosed and killed himself but it's not to late for him to change his ways. At this point the movie takes on a decidedly religious tone and unfolds with all the subtlety and cleverness of a Chick tract (except less scary or thrilling and poorer dialogue). Mercifully there's only about 12 minutes left in the film.

In the final moment of the film he is walking down a street where a bunch of people who are dead are doing and saying unusual things when he sees a girl who's wondering around and asking no one in particular "where's my mommy?" She wonders into the street where a car is fast approaching and he shoves her out of the way and is struck by the car. While he's lying on the ground quivering and dying the devil appears and and says that he did a good deed by pushing the girl out of the way. The devil asks him to stay with him, says some other really stupid stuff then disappears. The protagonist stands there looking at his body on the ground when his daughter takes him by the hand and they go off to heaven...or something, I don't know. I just wanted it to be over by that point and thankfully it was.

The dialogue was pretty awful. Most of the conversations sounded very forced and would never occur between real people. The acting was even worse. It's an entirely clean "horror" movie in that there is no violence or gore shown and no makeup effects. That and the combination of seriously horrible acting and terrible dialogue makes this an excruciating experience. Everything that is suppose to be creepy falls entirely flat because it seems to have come from the imagination of what a 10 year old would think is scary, and I have no idea where they get off claiming the "thriller" part of horror/thriller.
