A Killer Rising

A suspenseful, aptly horrifying ride! There's some division on this film. I think it comes down to how much you like indie filmmaking. If you're expecting a big-budget, slick, fake movie, you're going to be disappointed. But if you want a thrilling horror film, raw, edgy, real, then this is for you. I was thoroughly into it!

A must watch in going inside a mind of a killer. Very intense and raw. Remind me of the first time I watched Seven. The acting is spot on. The characters are mesmerizing. And the twists keep you guessing on how it's all going to end. If crime thriller is you thing, then this is it.

Not perfect, but about as close as a low-budget Indie can get, this is a film well worth checking out. Solid production value and performances, maybe a little inspiration from Dexter mixed in with an intriguing procedural, and you won't be left with feeling like "better luck next time."

We've all seen the "Loose Cannon" investigator go after killers. The first half of this movie is all about the "Crazy cop." It gets dull. However, the second half truly delivers. The lead actress is terrifying as she goes into a dark, psychotic place. Good film. For: Procedural/Revenge enthusiasts Skip: Edge of your seat types

This film has some very dark, intense moments. It opens with a harrowing scene that allows up to understand the protagonists actions as the film progresses. The female lead gives an edgy, real performance and has the courage to show us her ugly side. She has a tough presence that we don't often see in films. This film is a difficult journey into the mind of a traumatized person but the dynamic performances, and powerful drama definitely make it worth the ride.
