What a horrible movie. The acting was horrid & the story was cheesy. The only parts of this movie that had any meat to it were the bloody gore scenes. I'm almost shocked that Tyrese Gibson had any part in this movie. Not saying Tyrese Gibsson's a great actor but he makes the rest of these people in this movie look like amateur high school drama students. It'll definitely have you squealing for wasting 1 1/2 hrs of your life watching this hot garbage! I did see this movie from beginning to end out of curiosity to what was going to happen but it literally took me a week turning it off & back on resuming where I left off because I couldn't stand watching it for any more than 15 to 20 minute durations.

Exactly. Even for someone who can dig splatter and exploitation, this one really was a waste of film stock and everyone's time. As others have noted, it's based on the Canadian serial killer Robert Pickton, and yet again we're treated to the fiction that it takes place in the US (yes, it was filmed in New Mexico, but so what?) because... because why? Because they don't want to shatter everyone's belief that all Canadians are *nice*? Trust me, they aren't - I've been in a room (twice, in fact) with Kevin O'Leary. But I'll not go off on that tangent. The point is that they could have stuck closer to the actual story and probably improved the movie, because it really wouldn't be possible to make it any worse. Some of the facts of the case are much creepier than they portrayed, such as the Pickton farm actually being very close to the populated areas that had grown around it rather than way out in the country as suggested in the movie. And everything about where he lived and what he did was far more squalid and creepy than portrayed, as much Ed Gein and Texas Chainsaw Massacre as forensic procedural, as the poice and MEs spent *years* sifting through the muck in search of DNA traces of the dozens of women who had been killed. It's as though the filmmakers chose to pick the least interesting path through the entire story. I dunno how Graham Greene got roped into this.

So why a 2 instead of a 1, which is the lowest rating I use (I won't do 0 because they aren't counted)? Nudity. The braless cop was a treat and the victim with the pierced nipples was impressive, though I'm pretty sure those were prosthetics. See? I can be cerebral and shallow at the same time. Anyway, I watched this one so you don't have to. There are other movies based on this story that are worth the time.

Highly unoriginal! The plot is exactly what you get from the description and nothing more.

It is one of those movies that are painfully to watch and you keep checking the run time to see just how much more you have to endure. It really is a test of patience and will, one that I passed barely, with some breaks, checking the phone and rolling my eyes about 100 times.

I simply found nothing to like about it, it's not even so bad it's good, no horror, action, tension, interesting characters, dialogue, just a freaking bone would have suffice. Sadly, no such thing here. And what is happening with Tyrese Gibson, how did he end up hin this one. I don't consider him a good actor but surely he can do better than this. He had made a name for himself.

Anyway, back to Squealer. Such a waste of time really, if any effort was put into this, I don't know where it went. Very dry movie that leaves you with that memorable quote 'I'm not gonna get these 90 minutes back'.

Cheers!

Peacock has actually made some decent original content. Both TV series and movies. But this was sooo bad. Like embarrassing awful. I had watched some previous Peacock originals and was surprisingly impressed. Then I saw some recognizable names in this movie: Amos from The Expanse, Juice from Sons of Anarchy, Tyrese.. should be decent enough right? Wrong. Have I met the ridiculous minimum character standards yet? No? Ok fine, 170 more to go... The writers must have been fresh college grads because this movie was cookie cutter from the jump. Dialogue was less than amateur. Film lens was cheap. Clearly low budget. Character limit met. This movie sucked.

Tyrese Gibson talent was wasted in this film. Maybe he should stick to singing. This genre of film i do like, reminds you of classic movies like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and so many others. But the problem is the budget, it is made cheap and that sets the bar real low. Money and big budgets sets a different standard on how a movie turns out with the viewers. The story and acting sets the tone as well. It could have been so much better, i love Bruce Willis and Mel Gibson and I'm surprised they weren't a leading role in this film, since they have been doing low budget movies for quite some-time.
