What did hell freeze over, or did pigs fly.How on earth was this movie ever allowed to, see the light of day. the acting was worst than second rate. I think that anyone who has seen this film, needs to walk right in to the ocean. the studio who produced this movie should be eviscerated
Well, I had some fun while watching Zipperface... That´s a kind of movie you don´t watch seriously, unlike The Silence of the Lambs or Copycat. I laughed a bit while watching it. That´s seems to be a second graded TV movie (it seems to be shot on videotape). Everything is very weak - plot, directing, acting (completely horrible), cinematography (I would rather say videography), music and other stuff, which makes movie a good or a bad one. Nobody of the major cast of Zipperface have done more than one movie - Zipperface! For example, have you heard anything about actors Donna Adams, Jonathan Mandell, Trisha Melinkov? Or a director - Mansour Pourmand?
some scenes of the movie are really funny. For example, in one episode a maniac in leather suit cuts off a head of a whore. (All the victims of this movie are the whores - why - I don´t understand!) and he does it as easily as if he would cut a watermelon or something... And in another scene he throws the slut out of the balcony and if you watch carefully (that´s really difficult) you will see a tent which was carefully put there, so the slut just plumps on the tent! Buy or rent this movie and you´ll have a lot of fun!

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.
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."

This film takes horror to another level. A truly unique, edge of your seat thrill ride of hellish fear. The character of "Zipperface" is so sickeningly deranged (yet twistedly realistic), there were moments where I had to pause my VCR in order to wretch uncontrollably out of sheer terror. As "Zipperface" descents into a whirlwind of madness, I was almost able to feel his grasp on his own sanity frantically slipping into a maniacal world. Nearly paralyzed by his demonic acts, I watched as he unremorsfully murdered not one, but SEVERAL hookers with a variety of bone chilling devices of torture. The unfortunate whores were only able to scream for a mere moment before their inevitable demise, but those very screams haunted my mind and soul for days. Although I purchased this terrifying film at the dollar store, I feel it was almost worth the money, and would even go as far as saying it could be categorized with such classics as: "Bride of Chucky", "Ninja Cheerleaders", and "Nympho Zombies". Bravo, to the entire cast and crew! I am still anxiously awaiting the sequel!
