Twisted,Beautifully Crafted, Pyschological Who-Dunnit!

Rating: Null/10 (14 April 2003)

I had the pleasure of viewing this at a press screening and I am thoroughly happy with this movie! It has been quite some time in my opinion since Hollywood has churned out an at least half way movie of this style. Now sure you have good scary movies like "The Ring" to give you those jumps and scares, but what about true psychological terror huh? In the tradition of Psycho meets oh let's just say Silence of the Lambs, we get Identity an pretty much all star cast has come together to bring us a movie that keeps you guessing. Now on with it,it all takes place one dark and stormy night in the middle of the desert where 11 random people are brought to a hotel by circumstances they cannot control and then comes the fun part as John Cusack puts it "People started dying". One by one the unlucky travelers are gruesomely murdered,but by whom? You won't know until the end unless you are a very attentive sleuth. Now I won't say much more because I'd hate to give anything away but go see it and I hope you enjoy! The only thing I disliked about this movie is I wish Alfred Molina had a bit more screen time. He is quite a gifted but underrated actor. If one has any comments or suggestions please feel free to email me. take care and good night.
