Arrow Video infiltrates THE CELL (review)

Jennifer Lopez plays a child psychiatrist who uses advanced technology to enter the minds of her patients.  When the FBI are racing against time to find the abducted victim of a killer who has gone into a coma, she finds it easily enough to get into the killer's mind but becomes trapped when she no longer knows what is real in the debut feature film from music video director Tarsem Singh.  Vince Vaughn and Vincent D'Onofrio also star.
