...rationed in our country - so you can imagine the burden on the farms imposed by this huge influx of new people." The Chinese claim that finding a home for each refugee costs $1,200, a figure that covers the purchase of transportation, agricultural tools, housing and food. As a result, Peking has taken the unprecedented step of asking the U.N. for financial help in resettling the refugees who are still in the camps and those who are expected to arrive in the future.

Margot Kidder is chipper and pleasant as the puzzled wife resisting her worst suspicions about the demons in her dream house, but she cannot overcome the film's ineptitude and lethargy. The movie's creators should either have stuck to the facts, ma'am, or they should have invented something to scare the pants off us. As it is, they have managed merely to bore them...
