Details

Escaped serial killer James Becket, who killed his own father whose expectations he never fulfilled, but now especially targets his wife Theresa 'Tess' and her family, is too good at disguising himself and other deceit for detective Diffs task force. Only one man proves able to fight back in his league: former cop J.T. Dillon, who was already training Tess in self-defense and becomes her lover. Becket decides to find hiding place by kidnapping Diffs wife, and thus enforce a final show-down.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
bth2004 This has to be one of the worst films I have ever seen! Understand, I like Dacascos, and he's done some fairly good stuff (Drive, Only the Strong, Redemption was OK, Cradle to the Grave was OK). He's a phenomenal martial artist and is a decent actor. This was simply a choice he must have made while drunk or something.The effects (even the film quality) were LOUSY! I have seen higher quality filming techniques and effects from 1950's film. Also (this is my personal opinion), if you have to put that much sex into a movie, that should be taken as a desperate attempt at making it worth watching, which it does not. Also, I'm simply sick and tired of seeing the hero fight the villain and get beat within an inch of his life, then the bad guy die in some absurd way (like the hero getting choked and then the villain's moron ex-wife shoots him)!Like I said, if you ever see this on a shelf in the rental store or coming on a movie channel, RUN AWAY! You WILL HATE this film!
MSTracy This movie is the PREDICTABLE Hollywood CRAP where the BAD GUY gets away with murder SO MANY times due to the inability of the GOOD GUYS to fire their weapon with even BASIC MARKSMANSHIP SKILLS!!!This movie was SO frustrating that I "fast forwarded" through the BS after the first FIVE times the BAD GUY "successfully" dodged a hail of pistol fire being fired at him FROM JUST ACROSS THE ROOM!The ONLY redeeming scene was where the BAD GUYS WIFE NAIL him with ONE SHOT in the end!I would have LOVED to have the Director in my living room so I could "Bitch slap" this idiot every time he wasted my time with "unrealistic" scenes!
iammelchizedek I recently watched "INSTINCT TO KILL" for the very first time... B-List cast? Poleeeeeez...GIVE ME A BREAK! The cast, directing, storyline, and all other movie-making essentials were SUPERB- PERIOD!Given the choice to view the CRITICALLY acclaimed movies "Titanic", "Star Wars", "Austin Powers" and "Harry Potter" (consecutively and for free), or PAY to see "INSTINCT TO KILL", I'd pay to see the latter EVERYDAY of the week! HONESTLY!By-the-way, in America's educational system we're taught A's are better than B's. Keeping this (nationally accepted 'Institution for Higher Learning' fact) in mind, why on earth are "INSTINCT TO KILL"'s cast members B-Labeled?, while the cast members of the other aforementioned movies are A-Labeled?PLEASE! Give me "INSTINCT TO KILL"'s (UNDULY B-Labeled) cast and you can keep your (SO CALLED) A-List wannabes!
Chillseeker I rented this one only because both Kadeem Hardison and Mark Dacascos where back in a movie again. The last one was Drive and it was awesome. But this one is so so boring that I almost feel asleep. Kadeem is playing a cop, Mark is now some kind of a bodyguard and we have Tim Abell as a killer who is trying to hunt down his wife. Of course she goes to Mark etc. etc. My opinion 1/10
