This movie is based on James Lee Burke's best selling novel "In the Electric Mist with Confederate Dead" and is proof that there are some great books that cannot be transferred to the silver screen. The whole plot with these surreal dream sequences etc work in a book, its an unmitigated disaster, however, when you see them on the screen. The final straw that broke the camel's back for me was when the hero solved a murder case based on a vision he had, where he saw how the murder was done, and got advice from a dead Confederate general. Bring me the bucket!
Rating 2 out of 5.
