Well, a few, but I gotta say Star Trek: The Motion Picture had me severely unsettled. Just like you, that transporter malfunction haunted me, and you are right. It is still creepy, especially because of what we don't see. <br /><br />I can't wait for your review! I rewatched it just last month and I agree. It has a lot of virtues.John L.
