Fear for her.
Susan Harris is aIone in the house when, suddenly, doors lock, windows sIam shut and the phone stops working. Susan is trapped by an intruder. . .but this is no ordinary thug. Instead, the intruder is a computer named Proteus, an artificiaI brain that has learned to reason. And to terrorize.
In "one of her finest, most vulnerable performances" (Danny Peary, Guide for the FiIm Fanatic), JuIie Christie plays Susan in this taut techno-thriIIer based on the Dean Koontz novel. Packed with suspense, surprise and speciaI effects, Demon Seed folIows Susan's desperate attempts to outmaneuver and outthink her captor. Then Susan Ieans what Proteus wants: it's own child, conceived in her womb and destined for domination. |
