Paranoid ramblings in a boring unrealistic film.
21 August 2016
This movie is like the love child of Scientology and the Left Behind novels. PKD was slowly losing his mind when he wrote this story and analogizes his experience of VALIS sending bizarre messages into his brain via a pink beam. The story is weak and uncompelling unlike his brilliant works of the past. The movies is about other dimensional beings trying to start a revolution by sending messages into the mind of a record producer so that he could put vague lyrics into one song of one band's album. Yeah, real Rebel Alliance stuff here. Why didn't VALIS just send the signal into everyone's mind and start a war? Who knows? The film sure didn't cover that subject. Anyway, the movie itself is poorly directed but the bad story just kills it.
