The scientist Diana Purlow (Dina Meyer) is performing experiments with the mind of criminals sentenced to death in the prison of the sadistic warden Earl Blakely (Dennis Hopper). She tests an apparatus she developed and capable of read minds in a man that claims to be innocent of a murder, but she is not able to convince her former lover and Governor (Jeff Fahey) to call off the execution. When the serial killer Jesse Mowatt (Pavan Grover) is arrested and sentenced to death, she convinces the warden to submit Jesse to her experiment. While working with the murderer, Diana faces pure evil in its essence."Unspeakable" is an intriguing story with gore and supernatural elements that unfortunately has a terrible conclusion. In the last five minutes, it is disclosed the character "Alicia", without any previous reference along the story, and I honestly did not understand why Jesse wanted Diana to kill him. For me, this conclusion is absolutely senseless. Further, there is a complete lack of explanation why Jesse had such abilities. Pavan Grover in the role of a diabolic serial killer pays homage to Harry Powell, the serial killer performed by Robert Mitchum in 1955 "The Night of the Hunter", with the words "Love" and "Hate" tattooed in his fingers. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "O Poder da Mente" ("The Power of the Mind")

An abysmally bad film. I can't comprehend how they got these reasonable actors to star in such a terribly conceived and executed movie. The writing and editing is so bad it's as though a big fan blew all their scene index cards around and they just put the film together however they landed. There is no solid plot, nothing at all to hold your interest, no real theme, no cool moments, nothing memorable whatsoever. I am quite literally stunned. This film goes right onto my worst ever list alongside 'Into the woods','Island of the dead', 'the off season', and most Uli Lommell and Uwe Boll films.

This movie is so utterly terrible I can barely bring myself to comment on it.It is poorly written, ill conceived, badly acted! Agh. It is a poor imitation of silence of the lambs and even has the "beautiful" caring psychiatrist trying to understand the celebrity serial killer. Spare me such cinematic clichés! The killer is so utterly unconvincing. He looks like some cheesy 80s pop star and exudes nothing but blandness; where is the menace in this guy? And Dennis Hopper?! Wow! What were you thinking man?! Apocalypse Now! Easy Rider! Blue Velvet! Come on! I have seen many many films, but this must rate as the worst ever. If there had been a zero score possible on the voting scale, I would have awarded it. But I had to make do with a "1" - doesn't even come close to a "1"

Gotta say this is one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. Pavan Grover and Dina Meyer are an excellent duo, and the story line is incredible. If I'm right, I believe this film is based on a true story, and it is just amazing. Diana Purlow(Dina Meyer), a psychiatrist, must figure out a plan to get Jesse Mowatt(Paven Grover) to confess to a murder that was pinned to an already condemned, innocent man. Using her new technological advanced equipment, Diana convinces Jesse to test for a brain scan, which reveals disturbing evidence of the homicide, and secrets in Diana's sensitive past.Overall this movie is a definite 10 until and if I see any better flicks. Again, Dina Meyer manages to take a fan's breath away in this sci-fi thriller.
