If you liked, 'When the Bough Breaks,' starring Martin Sheen, and Ally Walker, then avoid this like the plague! Martin Sheen and Ally Walker have been replaced by Bruce Dern and Kelly McGillis, and the characters are lost on them. I don't believe either of them have ever even seen the first movie this SEQUEL is based on. Kelly McGillis constantly has these mini breakdowns throughout the movie, and they are totally NOT BELIEVABLE, I would go as far as saying they are laughable. The saddest part of this drek is David Keith, a quality actor who is wasted here. They actually have him talking to porcelain dolls! How original! I saw that on 'Miami Vice,' in 1984.
The lead roles are obviously a rip off of Mulder and skull from X-Files. The tone, cinematic aesthetic, mood and overall theme is literally inspired by x files.. If you are at all a fan of X-Files don't watch it because it is atrociously an emulation of the show. Even the score and the musical aesthetic is exactly the same i think they use the same for the higher to composer to emulate the exact musical style. It's amazing that this was even given a green light to be aired and broadcast it there's literally zero originality in the screenplay. I can see why it wasn't successful I think viewers kind of picked up on that.
For those that think "Perfect Prey" was better cinema than "Witness" this movie is the "perfect fare" for them. Well acted, the grizzled Kelly McGillis does take her role seriously, and for that we thank her. D.W. Moffett gives a splendid performance, but the true star of the show is David Keith. Never have I seen an actor take such demented delight in smearing red lipstick all over his characters sick, depraved lips. The storyline is decent, with an ending that borrows liberally from "Silence of the Lambs." Great cinema for that Saturday evening when Mom has to wait up for the teen that is out for the night with the family car. "Perfect Prey" is intriguing enough to keep the mind off worry, yet mindless enough that a viewer doesn't have to think as the clock nears one in the morning. For those that love a good storyline that offers a little more bang for the buck, try "Witness." Definitely Kelly McGillis at her finest, if only for the classic scene with a younger and sturdier Harrison Ford where they dance alone in an Amish country barn, a scene where McGillis truly sizzles and smolders with implied sexuality and Amish girl heat.
For surly he walks away with this and his portrait of a demented serial killer. This is unusual as Keith is always the victim, ala OFFICER AND GENTLEMEN. He was excellent. Kelly McGillis I usually like but felt there was a monotone level of work in this. Her face never showed any emotion except fear. Does she ever enjoy anything? I liked her in WITNESS and TOP GUN where she at least had interesting moments. But wasted in this. I guess we're supposed to see she's a tough detective and determined to catch her prey. Aging Bruce Dern plays a small role of a detective. Dern would have been more interesting if he had ended up the killer as he plays strange roles better. D W Moffett (what does the D stand for?) played another detective and love interest to Kelly. I remember him in AN EARLY FROST as the love interest to Aiden Quinn. A good looking guy too. But give the laurels to Keith for a wonderful job. And to all those lovely ladies he managed to charm into his den. Maybe sometime we could see a serial killer who takes all the beautiful boys and torments them. It would be different as most of the time it's always the women that get chosen.
I have to say I didn't expect too much when I decided to watch this movie. Well it turned out to be a pretty good thriller. It makes you think a little, so I would say the plot's got something good too. I gave 7/10 stars.
