4/10
BATTERY NOT INCLUDED

Warning: Spoilers
If you have seen the original "Coma" and were not in a coma during the first 10 minutes of the film, you should have it fairly well figured out except for some slight nuances.

Susan Wheeler (Lauren Ambrose) is a third year hot shot medical student and now an intern. Her grandfather was the legendary Dr. Wheeler who is remembered by the older staff. She quickly discovers something wrong is going on the hospital, the only question that remains is who can she trust. This should have been a a movie that examines the moral and ethical questions of "death panels", the common good, and embryonic stem cell research. Instead it only glosses over the topic and then inanely makes a mockery of the whole thing.

It is really ashamed because they had good actors to support this script and failed to deliver the goods. They managed to turn scenes which should have been shocking into the mundane.

Made for TV, TV-14 This should be a free film for Amazon Prime. I predict it will soon make the bad horror film muti-packs.
