Annoyingly average, fatally unfocused ............

Being a big fan of J.S. Cardone's film "Blue Day Black Night", I was anticipating something along those lines with "A Climate For Killing". Unfortunately the latter film is annoyingly average. It starts out with a decapitation murder, but then bogs down for the next hour and a half. Characters that have no bearing on the outcome are introduced, and then disappear forever. These unnecessary dead ends, and almost constant flashbacks accompanied by explanations leave the movie with zero suspense. The various relationships really never feel genuine, and the bad guy doesn't appear until just before the credits roll. "A Climate For Killing" is a fatally unfocused film. - MERK

A slow-burner, excellent movie

If only all B-movies were this good, we'd all be insomniacs. This is a movie that takes its own sweet time, instead of rushing it moves with a measured grace through its scenes. There's nothing flash, nothing fancy, just people being people. Cinematic clichés, like the Sheriff's daughter's hick dumb bully former husband, are nodded to but not allowed to dominate proceedings. It's like that character in particular is bought in just as if to illustrate to the viewer that while this was a movie well aware of what was expected of it, it damn well wasn't going to go there. Different, individual, this is a class act all the way through.

I really enjoy this film as its the kind of film I like where the pieces are gradually put together to reveal the answers but most of all I love the sound of the atmospheric music which is used and it always makes me mad when some twit of a continuity announcer talks over the end credits and the great music whenever it is shown on tv, which is an increasing tendency these days and has me spitting blood many a time. It should be banned and subject to a hefty fine every time its done. I feel better now I've got that off my chest:-)

Neither whodunit nor thriller..

The whodunit side is completely vain,because when the movie comes to its end ,we've forgotten what, why and when all these conventional events happened.A man marries a much younger girl, he is rich,both are killed.Ah and there are two cops:first they sit glaring at each other but afterward....well you get the picture.And the older cop has a daughter,she's lovely and she falls for ...well you know the score.

Climate for choosing something else if you are in search of originality.
