Within the confines of an abandoned rural farmhouse, Carl Stargher, a psychologically disturbed killer has built The Cell, a glass-encased chamber where he drowns his innocent female victims before continuing a sadistic post-mortem ritual with their bodies. As the FBI finally closes in on the killer, he is rendered comatose by a violent seizure and is ultimately apprehended into their custody, but not before leaving his latest victim alive in The Cell with only forty hours to live. Unfortunately, only Stargher knows where she is. Enter Catherine Deane. Deane, a child therapist, is part of an advanced neurological study at the Campbell Center, a research division of a large pharmaceutical company, where she's been using her empathetic abilities along with breakthrough technology to enter into the mind of a catatonic young boy to help bring him back to his loving parents. While FBI agents Peter Novak and his partner Gordon Ramsey follow clues to uncover the missing g! irl's whereabouts, the FBI enlist Catherine to use her "gift" to embark on an uncharted and perilous journey through Stargher's demented mind.
These bad little pussycats are most definitely sleeping on the job! All manner of creatures are finding their way into the room unnoticed -animated mice, bookworms, butterflies, bees – and an army of ants at the bottom of the screen marching off with all the kitchen goodies! Painting by Mimi Vang Olsen. Excellent midi music called Honky Cat plays continually in the background. This screensaver accompanies my desktop theme by the same name.

"The Cell" is the feature directing debut of noted visualist Tarsem Singh, whose commercials and videos are held in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art. Is "The Cell" art? It's magnificent to look at, but at the half way mark the visuals get so far out they cease to serve the sketchy story.
