Refreshing as it is to see attempts made to reinvigorate the played out serial killer genre movie it seem that in this and to a certain extent in the ludicrously over rated Australian film "Snowtown" the only thing "new" the director can bring is annoying camera work. This movie is particularly irritating as
A) Between almost every scene change the picture fades out and then fades in again.
B) It would appear that even though some of the actors are portraying recovering alcoholics it is in fact the camera man who is drunk.
C)The doom laden score plays too often promising tension that is never delivered.
D)Although filmed in widescreen there is little scope to the cinematography - it may as well be pan and scan.
E) In the sorry end this is nothing but a generic serial killer movie and a poor one at that.
Yet again for the millionth time - DO NOT believe the hype. Avoid.
