Dream house

Threat advisory: Under evaluation

Movie propaganda

A deadly case of neighbourhood watch.

Imagine the home of the future, run by a computer programmed to fulfil almost any desire. Timothy Busfield stars as Richard Thornton, a brilliant inventor who's gambling everything on his riskiest creation - Helen.

A computer Smart-house with a mind and logic all its own, Helen has been programmed to run the Thornton household. But events spin dangerously out of control when Thornton's family moves in, driving Helen into a jealous rage against her human inhabitants. Thrills and horror mount as the family tries to save itself from an artificial intelligence gone mad - and a dream house turned nightmare!

Written by Jim Makichuk and directed by Graeme Campbell.
