An interview at the Tribeca Film Fest with director John Dowdle revealed - when asked if this movie is based on an actual killer in Poughkeepsie - that (and I quote): "It's actually a combination of a number of them, but there's one -- Edmund Kemper. He was a really, really scary guy and we took a lot of pieces from him and we took some from the Green River Killer. There was a guy in Chicago we took pieces from. There was a duo in Michigan who worked together and filmed everything they did, and we took some stuff from them. Some from Ted Bundy too. So we sort of combined a lot of different real stories. Remember that couple that kidnapped a 19-year old girl and kept her as a slave for six years? We took pieces of that as well." So all of you out there insisting that this is a true story about a Poughkeepsie killer who video-taped his murders are making fools of yourselves.
This movie is nothing short of brilliant. It's the kind of movie that you will think about over and over again after you see it. In fact, I had trouble falling asleep the night after I saw it because I kept re-examining it my head. Like "The Usual Suspects" and "Fight Club", if you like this movie even in the least, you will want to see it again. I can't say anything in the way of details because the less you know, the better. In fact, don't read anymore of these user comments. Just go see it. And pay attention.
