Terry Munroe and her son Josh come into the store to purchase software, and a salesman uses Terry's address book to demonstrate a handheld scanner. Karl obtains the book, and while driving to Terry's house that night in a thunderstorm, his car runs off the road and lands upside down in a cemetery. While Karl is undergoing an MRI at a hospital, a surge of lightning courses through the building, and Karl's mind is transformed into electrical energy. Karl uses the electrical grid and computer networks to continue his killing spree. It is up to Terry, Josh, and computer hacker Bram Walker to stop him before it is too late.

Movie Reviews

Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Lloyd SachsIt is a competent, occasionally witty genre piece that never tries to be anything more.
Los Angeles Times - 6/10 by Kevin ThomasAll the ways in which the killer’s evil spreads and manifests itself are consistently dazzling. The trouble is that they show up the film’s human relationships as drab and conventional in comparison.
Variety - 6/10 by Leonard KladyIt’s an effective, if predictable paranoid fantasy. The film’s social statement may be hopelessly muddy, but its adroit sense of fun and thrills cannot be discounted.
Reel Film Reviews - 4/10 by David Nusair...exceedingly silly and surprisingly tedious...
Empire - 4/10 by Kim NewmanAlthough the film has a ridiculous premise that's no reason for it not to work, sadly the direction it is taken in, it's poor acting, character development and shoddy action sequences are though. Allen stands out as a spunky heroine but she's the best thing in it.
Chicago Tribune - 4/10 by Michael WilmingtonThe plot stumbles over genre cliches after a promising start and the whole thing becomes lamentable. As an indictment of a techno-society in which too much information is available by computer, it's simply unconvincing.
Hartford Courant - 4/10 by Malcolm JohnsonWhile Talalay and her writers have dreamed up a number of fairly imaginative ways to show the hazards of household machines and gadgets, their horror effort offers few truly scary moments and not a few ridiculous ones.
The Hollywood Reporter - 3/10 by David KronkeThe special effects are good, with some nifty computer-generated animation, but they're an empty, ineffective crutch on which to support an entire film--and besides, better visuals had already appeared in THE LAWNMOWER MAN.
Austin Chronicle - 2/10 by Marc SavlovWith token computer graphics thrown in to pad an already overlong script, Ghost In the Machine gamely tries to hop aboard the Virtual Reality bandwagon and only succeeds in crashing the Net.
ReelViews - 0/10 by James BerardinelliAt least there are some decent special effects to distract the viewer's attention from the story, right? Wrong. The visual effects aren't much better than those found in any typical video game system. They're repetitive and unimaginative.
