White Noise 2 description
An in-name-only sequel to the 2005 supernatural thriller with Michael Keaton, White Noise 2 mixes two well-documented paranormal experiences--EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena) and NDE (Near Death Experience)--in its story of an unusual gift granted in the wake of a tragedy. The likable Nathan Fillion (Firefly, Desperate Housewives) stars as a man whose near-death experience following the murder of his wife and son grants him the ability to see a halo around those whose death is imminent. Naturally, he sets about to prevent these untimely demises, but discovers that tampering with predestination attracts the attention of sinister forces. Professionally lensed and heavy with visual effects (as well as one impressive set piece involving a falling grand piano), White Noise 2 is buoyed by Fillion and Katee Sackhoff (Battlestar Galactica, The Bionic Woman) as the cheery nurse who helps him deal with his grief; unfortunately, they're stuck with a dreary and overly complicated script that attempts to assimilate far too many horror movie clichés into one picture. Extras include a whopping 33 minutes of deleted scenes, interviews with real-life individuals who have endured NDE, a short making-of featurette, and a walking tour with Fillion of the allegedly haunted asylum that served as one of the film's locations. -- Paul Gaita |

SAVING THE DEAD
|
Abe Dale (Nathan Fillion) watches as a total stranger walks up and shoots his son, his wife and then himself. Shocked, he mourns the loss of his family uncontrollably until he can take it no more and attempts suicide. But as he makes his way into that ever spoken of white light, doctors resuscitate him and he returns to the land of the living.
Thus begins a tale that seems to be headed one direction before it takes a disastrous turn. Now returned to life, Nathan begins to see auras around various people he encounters, including a doctor attempting to help him. The doctor describes the things Nathan sees and hears as a form of EVP or electronic voice phenomena (a phenomena paranormal researchers actually use).
But things go bad as the people he sees begin to die. Nathan realizes that he has the ability to save their lives and begins doing so, including a young nurse who consoled him in the hospital.
That nasty twist? It seems that once you save someone's life you become responsible for all actions taken thereafter. And since they were taken away from their time to die, they turn around and kill others. As Nathan digs deeper into the man who killed his family's past, he discovers him alive. He also finds out that the man was doing so only because he had saved them earlier. And they would have become killers just like the others he had saved.
Faced with this knowledge, Nathan must now go out and find those that he helped and stop them from killing. Caught in the conundrum of realizing he must take life when his whole goal was to save them, the moral questions Nathan deals with make this movie a complex thriller that keeps you in suspense.
Fillion turns in a wonderful performance, as he always does. The goal of an actor is to not seem to be acting and in all I've had the fortune of seeing him do, I've felt that in each role even when he faces the afterlife or squishy monsters (as in SLITHER). The rest of the cast performs just as well in a story that seems incredible but at the same time somehow believable.
Your views on the afterlife may not change after watching this film. But for the time you spend watching it, you will wonder what you would do in the same situation. And you will wait to find out just what happens to Nathan Dale and those whose lives he touched.
