El asesino de negro

There's someone killing S&M prostitutes in a small Californian town and the police are having a hard time catching him. A recently promoted female detective is on the case and, despite the fact she's just there to fill a quota, she's trying to take him down.

I have to say that the killer looks pretty cool. Very intimidating. But, as for the rest of the film, well it's all a pretty lame affair. We have as much trouble finding Zipperface as the police do in this film because he very rarely makes an appearance. The rest of the runtime seems to be fairly boring kitchen sink drama.

So, as a cop would say at a crime scene. "Move along folks, nothing to see here. Move along."

After watching zipperface i felt joy, it was one of the funniest films i have ever seen. It is the same sort of category as Friday 13th and nightmare on elm street films. A sort of comedy horror, very predictable but still very nail biting and exciting. I think that the film is probably better than both of them and i really did like them both but nowhere near zipperace. Not only is zipperface a funny film at time but it is also quite scary foe example when my main man, zipperface decapitates a young half naked woman, this doesn't sound that scary but when you watch by yourself in the dark, on a cold december night it will scare the bejubus out of you. Quite simply i highly recommend this film, its like a party in my mouth and everyone's invited, its that good. Must see. 5 *****

Oh, my God, why was this movie ever made? That is a second graded TV-movie with pathetic acting, awful directing, flat plot... In this movie the characters seem to be electroshocked almost every minute. In "Zipperface" no one behaves like a real person would. That way, in one scene, a prostitute, after hearing some words like "Ask me to punish you..." from behind a door, comes in and says to her colleages: "I can't do that, I'll go home"... And so on. All the sets look so cheap, as if they would made of paper, all the scenes are shot on a soap operas stidio. Among these scenes are a ridiculous scene "hit-by-the-car", "thrown-out-of-a-balcony", "had-her-head-cut-off". But if you really want to enjoy this kind of a made-for-TV low-budget hilarity, buy or rent this one.

Wow! This is the movie that should be shown on TV at Two in the morning on Cinemax for all those insomniacs (lord knows they'd probably pass out from boredom watching this movie) Terrible acting, the killer is quite far from scary, I've seen clowns at carnivals that were scarier. Lot's of unnecessary 'skin' in this film, pseudo-porn scenes which are just horrible in more ways than a million, a gawdy soap opera style script which really hurt the movie and the director really had no flair for whatever genre he was trying to create with this film. I could see a group of teenagers with their parents camcorders doing better work than this. I don't think there is a part of me that could recommend this film to anyone...

Seems your Phaithful Phrog is the only one who saw this rarity. Well, there's no use to lose sleep over it : this is an average thriller (Tv movie ?) with an S&M overdose - but why does S&M between consenting adults always have to lead to murder and mayhem ? As a "killer-stalks-witness" story, this one is classical but brisky, but I especally liked the leather-clad killer which seems straight out of an Italian giallo. But don't expect another "Profondo Rosso"
