While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This may contain spoilersThis movie fails in the suspension of disbelief arena. If this was a science fiction movie I might believe a police department like San Francisco PD would allow a person that tracks wild animals, (like wolves), in Alaska to help find a serial killer. The part that killed it for me involved the dialog. Immediately after 6 or 7 SWAT/FBI team members are brutally shot by a suspect, some guys walks up to the detective and goes, "Detective, their's something here you have to see." While these guys are bleeding to death and the suspect is hanging out of a window, and immediately after the detective is shot at, some moron is going to say something as ridiculous as that? From that point I decided to skip until the end to find out who the killer was.

This movie is not a wonderful surprise, but a solid thriller with an interesting twist on the "psycho-killer" style, with good performances by the lead actors. The idea of a man from a far and wild land in a big city is not new, or the pairing of a female detective with a victim's relative, but here these elements are presented in a simple and convincing plot that makes you keep interested all the way. Robert Patrick is perfect for the role of a lonesome hunter, and Lauren Holly is both strong and sexy. I really don't understand why so many people here wrote negative reviews about this movie, it works for me as a late night filler perfectly. If you want to see a decent thriller, don't miss the chance. Recommended.

It's an interesting idea and it's well filmed, but there are so many little plot problems that it became almost comical. "Sam" is supposed to be an expert tracker, but just about everybody gets the drop on him. The "FBI" folks are predictably inept and [MINOR SPOILER]my wife and I figured out that the killer was using the handicap buses very early.[END SPOILER]The police seem to overlook the most basic of procedures (find out the connection between the victims?) until the 11th hour while they're extremely impressed with the most basic capabilities (they zoomed in on a photograph; wow, imagine that.)A few B-movie cinematic effects don't help matters. At least the acting is decent; I feel sorry for Robert Patrick who probably deserves better.

on a scale of 1-10 i give this movie a 5. robert patrick was great in this movie but it felt more like a big X-file, but without mulder and scully. i'm guessing it was a made for TV movie, it seemed to lack a full storyline. good action at times though and suspensefull. its worth a quick watch on tv, but ya, don't go rent it.
