While the ending of this film will no doubt irritate most, the film itself is a strange, trippy experience...one I am glad I took. But it certainly is an odd film....and one that is utterly ridiculous when you think about it. So, my advice is to watch it and just don't think!
The film is about a super computer named Proteus. It's more advanced than anything before it and it differs from other computers because it longs to achieve consciousness. And, to do so, it kidnaps its creator's wife and forces itself on it. Its aim is to create the first human-computer hybrid...one that will enable Proteus to interact with the real world as a humanoid.
While the plot is very simple, the filmmakers managed to make it all seem so possible...a sign of good sci-fi. I must warn you, however, that the film is quite disturbing--especially as it torments and ultimately forces itself on the woman. Strange, indeed, but very well made.
