Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
movieman_kev Conflicted about this film. It is well-acted especially by Peter Ferdinando who's spot-on as the emotionally-stunted soft-spoken psychopath Tony. Perhaps if I didn't read the positively glowing reviews for the movie, I would've ended up liking this lil slice-of-(serial killer) life film a tad more. It's not nearly as good as "Henry" a masterpiece that its often compared to and going into this one expecting it to be up on that level will likely be disappointed. However if you approach it blindly, and can get past the admittedly thick accents, then any fan of the sub-genre will still appreciate this one.
larawoolley I did not expect what I saw. What an brilliant, brilliant film. I love the way that I was made to feel empathy towards Tony before I was shown any of the killings, and also felt this way all the way throughout the film. This is a brutal, clever, and most of all, frighteningly real film. This could happen; it could be happening right now. Because I felt empathy toward Tony I found myself almost cheering him on (I know, it sounds awful) but Tony is such a childish, unassuming, softly spoken character that you can't help but feel for him when things go wrong or people take advantage of him. I love this film! 10/10. The twist at the end is excellent; I did not see it coming. Do not assume with this film!!! Excellent.
mdnobles19 This so called movie was extremely boring with no action, thrills intriguing story and not even shock value to make it worth a dime. I didn't think the acting was that good at all just very strange and the atmosphere sucked and sometimes I felt like I was watching a documentary. People are saying this is the UK answer to American Psycho and to me it doesn't even come close and at least that one was entertaining but I do think it comes close to Dahmer but not close enough because that movie was more chilling and you had a backstory to make sense of all of it but this film had no good direction. The pace was sluggish as hell and I dozed off a few times and for a serial killer flick it was pretty dry and lifeless and what the hell was up with that ending, it was one of the worst endings I have ever seen and makes me look down on it even more. Overall this is pretty generic material here and it's not a horror movie or even a thriller because it doesn't thrill or scare you or even entertain you it just left you feeling cold and wanting more and didn't bring anything fresh to the table. What a bore! Not recommended!
The Mystified MOVIE GRADE: A-I LIKED IT:1. Genuinely CREEPY2. Acting was Superb - Top Notch for an Indie Flick!3. Cinematography was beautiful4. Story was interesting and very different.IMPROVE ON:1. Music - didn't hate, nor did I like it.HATED:1. NOTHINGRECOMMEND TO:I recommend this movie to MOVIE FANS! This movie has creepiness written all over it, the lead actors portrayal of the fictional TONY was marvelous and brilliant. It creeped me out. Even the sub actors were great, the story was fascinating as it was particularly a piece in the KILLERS life. You may be boggled as to is there an ending? Remember this is just a part in a persons life and to have it that way makes it interesting and complete. Very detailed!If you like our stuff please bookmark us at http://themystified.com
