Interesting until the very end

Rating: 8/10 (3 October 2003)

Contains spoilers! When I saw the ads for this movie I dismissed it as just another scary movie. But then I noticed that James Mangold directed it and that Pruitt Taylor Vince played a big part alongside greats like John Cusack and Ray Liotta, so then I decided to go see it. And I was not let down, because this movie takes you through the mind of a schizo and the movie is cut in such a way that you only learn this step by step, only to be revealed at the very end what is going on and who did all the killing. And when that moment comes you actually witness an aha-erlebnis, trust me. This is not just a slasher movie, this is a great psychological tract on schizophrenia and also a complaint against capital punishment. On a side note, John C. McGinley was absolutely hilarious in his role. If you see(n) it, you know what I mean. 8 out of 10.
