Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Alistair Olson After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

charlotte-murdin Love this film, brilliant acting. The way they made it is brilliant. This is one of the best films I think I have ever seen. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I think it was brilliant. It made you guessing in some parts of the film. I loved the way it finished. Made you really think, 'omg this could happen tomorrow'. It is very well directed. Very well acted. Overall, well worth a watch! If you enjoy a good 'fake documentary' this is the film for you!The main character is brilliant, he really draws you in. You kind of feel like you could get to know him.

trashgang By watching this flick about some found footage of a serial killer, that idea was original, it reminded me of course of Henry Portrait Of A Serial Killer (1986) and Man Bites Dog (1992). Those surely have given people the creeps. This one doesn't although there are a few scene's that are not for the easily offended.It starts rather well with a normal flick about a serial killer but suddenly the movie is interrupted by Max (Kevin Howarth) telling that he has put his murder spree over a flick so you are the only one watching his life and the bad things he has done. I must say that indeed some of those deeds were gruesome but the combination of narrating and showing his abilities didn't work like in for example the earlier mentioned Man Bites Dog. Here also the crew slowly got involved and it do look like a rip-off of Man Bites Dog but the brutality of that film we never do see here. The idea is in fact original and towards the end when Max is referring to the viewer it do works but it has it flows and it didn't give me goosebumps like the two other flicks did. Still, not recommended for easily offended people.Gore 1/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5

Scott LeBrun From writer James Handel and director Julian Richards comes this reasonably interesting look at the life of a serial killer who decides that he'll document his actions, with the help of a troubled cameraman / assistant (Mark Stevenson), in his attempt to "write the final word on what constitutes horror." Its execution isn't exactly fresh, nor is it ever particularly insightful, but Richards manages to keep it entertaining and watchable. (Even if one isn't impressed, they only have to stick it out for 76 minutes.) It does have some grim, graphic, and uncomfortable scenes, but the main attraction is a charismatic central performance by Kevin Howarth as Max. Howarth is almost the whole show as he sits down and chats us up, asking us what we think of him and assuming that we're condemning his actions. He raises certain moral issues, while passing commentary on the whole idea of voyeurism.Gore and effects work are good; in particular, the immolation scene is impressive. It may be hard for some viewers to take this film as it doesn't shy away from showing imperiled people suffering and pleading for their lives. And all the time Max is maintaining his amused sense of detachment. He is an intriguing bugger, to be sure, as we see him interacting with other people in his life and keeping up the facade of being a more or less "normal", if somewhat eccentric, person on the surface. Where the film really gets more interesting is when Max is encouraging the assistant to increase his level of participation. Not surprisingly, the assistant is too bothered by conscience to be able to sink to Maxs' level of depravity.At least Handel and Richards come up with one entertaining gag, presenting their film as the home movies that Max and his buddy have recorded over the horror film on a videocassette.Overall, this is good but definitely not great stuff that should warrant a look for fans of the genre, even if it's naturally not in the same league as movies that came before it or may have inspired it such as "Peeping Tom" and "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer".Seven out of 10.

wilderblue2005 After researching serial killers and movies about them, its hard to find something unusual, original and brutal. This is a piece of work ... so it might work better if you HAD rented it, but ultimately you are left with something special. Kevin Howarth is brilliant, leading us down one false path after another ... building the tension, before giving us humorous respite. And death. The killings are realistic and at times vicious ... and all the time Max is taunting us - why do we want to watch? How much is a human life worth? Max is unflinching, unrepentant, unremorseful, he is doing something he enjoys ... are you? The ending, well ... I wondered how they would solve the problem of exposure and even that was done in a quaintly genius way. Hats off to the team behind it ... I am impressed.
