Pretty good story with a few actors and actresses that you know.

Billy Zane is a scientist whose accidental exposure to a drug compound suddenly gives him the ability to see other peoples' memories, through their eyes. Unfortunately, the person whose memories he starts seeing happens to be a psycho kidnapper/killer who's been stealing little girls and locking them away in a secret hideaway since the early 70s. The late great Dennis Hopper and Ann-Margret (!) both make appearances in supporting roles. An unexpectedly cool mystery that kept me guessing throughout.

A sleek psychological thriller in the tradition of Alfred Hi

"Memory is a sleek thriller that starts off slow and quickly builds into a cascading tide of action. It's very much in the style of Alfred Hitchcock and is one of my favorite movies out this year.

Roughly, the plot is that a memory researcher is exposed to an unknown substance that causes him to start experiencing memories that happened before he was born. He sees a masked figure in a Burberry coat chasing through the woods. At first he thinks he's going insane, but when he realizes the masked figure could be a serial killer, he must do whatever is necessary to bring the decades old nightmare to an end. I can't say much more without giving spoilers :>

The main review on Amazon says there are little in the way of surprises. I disagree. There ARE twists and turns in the plot, and even in the ending. I normally can see where these movies are going, and this one managed to surprise me.

I absolutely loved this movie. Billy Zane is a strong, dramatic actor and his performance is a pleasure to watch. I also appreciated the lack of gore and nudity in the film. Lately, too many sloppy productions have attempted to mask their short comings with excessive gore or gratuitous nudity, but with few shortcomings, this movie has little to mask.

If you're a fan of Hitchcock mystery thrillers or in the mood for a psychological thriller, please give this movie a shot.

Highly recommended.

"I waited so long to see this film, finally it opened here in New York City and I rushed to see it! Had a hard time at first following the plot, but slowly it all came together, especially after veteran actress Ann- Margret comes on screen as Carol Hargrave. I have never seen Ann Margret in this type of role and she really does a great job! REally love the film, the DVD has some great extras for aspiring film makers too!"

Good action, suspense

"Well, first of all, I have to say what a great looking lead. Billy Zane (Titanic) looks great in this one. The story is one that takes your interest right away. The ending sums it all up in about five minutes but the rest of the time you're trying to figure out who-done-it. Yeah, one of those movies."
