A young woman who has lots of issues (she can't figure out which bed to sleep in) believes some genetically engineered corn is killing people in a small town. Sadly, the town almost died before the big seed company came in and begin to produce this super corn. It's the classic battle with the big company and the towns people. Both would like her to keep her mouth shut. To complicate things, she is having an affair with a lawyer for the company. Her connection to this guy causes her marriage to start falling apart. She is also caring for a young, mentally challenged boy who, unfortunately, succumbs to the awful affliction (people get huge growths on their bodies and expire shortly thereafter). This isn't so much science fiction than an environmental catastrophe. The interest lies in her butting heads with the powers that be. One issue for me was that her husband was never portrayed as a bad guy leading us to question he dalliances (they do try to show how as a child, she watched her wicked mother go from bed to bed and abuse her between trips). Anyway, it's a tenuous premise.

Not the best but watchable

I love my Outer Limits, but this one isnt the best. Its not sci-fi, its bad genetic altering of corn by a evil coporston. The rating is given not for the story but the excellent acting by Jessica Tuck and veteran actor Len Cariou (love him in anything he does)!
