    Who wrote this?

    I mean I could look it up but I just don't have the energy or the care. This plot is so bad it's actually kind of funny. I knew from the first minute this movie would be a pile of poop. But I like B movies.

    Lionsgate man, why? I mean I guess Jon and Martin needed some cash or something, but at least use a workable script. I can't wait to see the score on this movie in a few weeks. My guess is it's sub 4.

    I liked he creativity a little, but overall it's just so bad and poorly done it can't be redeemable. I did like the lead female character.

    Watch this movie if you want to chuckle but make sure you're at least 2-3 wines deep. 3/10 just because I laughed a lot and the plot is so bad. So bad 😂

    How do they get away with this?!

    This is a rip off of 'The Silence of the Lambs', pure and simple.

    I have no idea how a film maker can be so blatant in stealing someone else's idea.

    The acting is good, even the script isn't bad, but at each turn the scenes lifted from Silence, music riffing off Red Dragon and Hannibal, are actually grating.

    I've seen worse films, and yet very few more difficult to watch because it feels like the audience is participating in this theft of another's work. It's a shame, because had the writer chosen to come up with ideas of their own to move the plot along, it might have been a half decent thriller.

    I wanted to like it

    Love the concept,love this genre. That's where it starts and well ends.

    We tried to watch it twice,it landed up being background noise and then we decided to find literally anything else to watch.

    This movie has A grade actors but thats all.

    The lead actress was not a great choice for this role.

    It's comes across as her reading her lines rather than becoming the character. She is like an amber Heard choice pretty face no depth.

    It was badly written I felt bad for the actors having to act out those lines.

    If they got better writers and a better leading lady it would be an awesome movie. Its meh.

    Silence of the Lambs reboot on a 10K Budget

    This movie is a cheap ripoff of SOTL complete with laughably bad script and bad acting all around. I kinda knew this going in but I watched it because I thought it would be good for a laugh, kinda like when I watch a Nick Cage movie. But unfortunately this movie is basically just a dud and not even a So bad it's good movie. Even John Malkovich does a rather humdrum job of portraying a crazed serial killer. The entire project is so amateurishly done that its hard to believe it ever got finished. Any producer should have put this thing out of it's misery early on as it comes across like a high school project by clueless wannabe actors and production people. A very disappointing dumb waste of time.

    SOTL Rip Off

    This is such a blatant rip off of silence of the lambs that it doesn't even try to hide it. They should've just name the two characters Clarice and Hannibal and got it over with. With that being said, it's not a terrible movie by any stretch but so many parallels to SOTL that's it's hard to ignore and enjoy.

    John Malkovitch is excellent as always, but I'm surprised that he took the role knowing about the rip off. In the movie they are chasing a copy cat killer which is interesting because this is a copy cat movie.

    They even trick the serial killer into leaving his cell so they can go in and investigate just like they did to Lecter in SOTL.

    • Trivia
      Director Mauro Borrelli was initially surprised that a producer suggested that he cast Martin Lawrence, a comedian, in this movie. However, when Borrelli met Lawrence, he liked the sound of Lawrence's voice and because of Lawrence's stand-up background and ability to remember two hours worth of comic material, Borrelli believed that Lawrence would be easy to work with.

      The photo of Mary Kelly's father at his funeral was captioned "Elias Kelly". Mary Kelly's maiden name was Allen, as seen earlier on her marriage certificate, married to Dale Kelly, so obviously her dad would have been Elias Allen.

      His name is very not important to the story. Neither helpful nor interesting.
