6/10

Warning: Spoilers
I did rate this movie 6 out of 10 which is actually a fairly decent endorsement considering how many horrible horror flicks there are out there.

The main story is about a young man who keeps getting smarter each day. The neurologist confirms he is using more of his brain than any person on record. He has terrible visions, hallucinations, migraine headaches, and passes out.

The main part of the story involves him playing speed chess against a chess-master. He loses at first but then reads books in seconds and learns every strategy ever conceived at chess and has several rematches with his newly found friend who admires his genius.

The movie starts to get darker as people around him start to get killed and he believes the monsters in his dreams are now crossing over to reality.

The rest of the movie is pretty standard and throws some plot twists that really are quite forgettable at best.

I would recommend this for a rainy day or late night when you have insomnia if you like horror and scifi but don't expect an great movie.
