Summary: Barry Thomas is the average office worker. He becomes attracted to Lisa Fredericks who works in the same company. After work, Barry witnesses the murder of Lisa and goes to a bar to get drunk. Later that night, there is a storm and Barry gets a shock from a lamp's faulty power wire at exactly 12:01 am... (imdb)
An entertaining, though not groundbreaking, flick. Jonathan Silverman and Helen Slater are solid leads and of course Martin Landau steals every scene he's in.
Sure it was a 90's TV production, but I liked how they kept intention on for whole 92 minutes. The protagonist was not Kurtwood Smith (as in the original short story), but he managed the lead okay. Way better version than the film entitled as Groundhog Day same year. Both full features run romantic plot aside the scifi main theme. Danny Trejo was a nice cameo.
Top badass moment? Workshy Barry breaks into his own office. The security guards are polite but inept, as Bazza somehow manages to grab one's gun from its holster. Impressive for an HR administrator. But what’s really badass is the threat he uses to distract them. “Stop giving me a hard time, because I’m going to have to come back here in the morning and make sure that you’re fired before we get here; and don’t think I can’t do it either, I’m in personnel.” No cats, chainsaws or decapitations.
