    It's energetic, good-looking and kind of scary - just don't try to make sense of it. [6 Oct 2000, p.5E]

    The multi-ethnic cast is appealing and their cyber notions are nice, but it's hard to tell where this curious concoction is headed. They're certainly loading the dice with paranormal possibilities. [6 Oct 2000, p.B51]

    For me, it's just too much work on a Friday night. [5 Oct 2000, p.E2]

    It's actually rather confusing and only marginally interesting. [5 Oct 2000, p.C06]

    Fortunately, this sci-fi rookie, which aims for the younger, testosterone-tilting Fox audience, has a playful sense of humor to go along with its visually hyper sensibility. [6 Oct 2000, p.12D]

    There are some scary moments in the first episode, which is appropriately dark and foreboding. But you can't escape the feeling this is just another X-Files clone. [6 Oct 2000, p.1E]

    Don't waste time trying to follow it. This convoluted camcorder e-mess is already freaked out to reboot mode behind the scenes, and the grade drops accordingly. [6 Oct 2000, p.10]

    Tonight's premiere goes from spooky to goofy to intriguing to incomprehensible -- in that order. [6 Oct 2000, p.44]

    The episode quickly grows tiresome because the hero makes too many frightened faces, the foliage quivers too often, and the photography delivers arty effects rather than chills. [6 Oct 2000, p.E1]
