Identity fraud

Rating: 5/10 (29 May 2005)

10 people who share the same birthday find themselves at a trapped with a serial killer in a seedy run-down motel on a dark and stormy night. It's up to the remaining living motel guests to figure out who the killer is. Some incredibly hokey dialog and a pathetic twist ending hamper an otherwise good thriller. Director James Mangold (Copland, Girl Interrupted) seemingly does the best he could with the script by Micheal Cooney (Jack Frost 1 and 2) and almost pulls it off...almost.
My Grade: C
DVD Extras: Choices of both Widescreen and fullscreen as well as Theatrical and extended versions; Director's Commentary; an episode of "Starz on the set"; 4 Deleted scenes with optional commentary; 3 Storyboard comparisons; cast and crew Filmographies; and Theatrical Trailer
