'Phase IV' is a 2002 Canadian direct-to-video action-thriller film starring Dean Cain and Brian Bosworth. It was directed by Bryan Goeres.

Plot



Journalist Simon Tate is investigating the apparently "unrelated" accidental deaths of several students at a local university. When his friend, Dr. Benjamin Roanic, becomes a prime suspect and is then subsequently murdered, Simon sets out to prove Roanic's innocence and establish a link between the deaths and an AIDS-related drug test program.

Reception



Robert Pardi from TV Guide gave the film two out of five stars, stating: "This anti-establishment action flick is an unsatisfying mix of cautionary sci-fi tale and Hitchcockian thriller." Glenn Erickson writing for the website DVD Talk gave the film two and a half out of five stars and said: "Most of the acting is reasonable. Bosworth's role is dull but Dean Cain is likeable in a numbskull kind of way engineered to be acceptable in as many foreign markets as possible."
