Confessions of a Serial Killer Reviews
Best of all the serial killer films
Precisely because of its "artless" low-key low-budget qualities this is the best of all the serial killer films. It's creepy, sleazy, sordid, grotesque, disgusting & banal - exactly as the real people & events depicted must be. The casting is perfectly on-target as are the acting, sets, etc. If you want a taste of what life is like for these guys this must be as close as it gets.
Scary because it is realistic
I had seen this movie on cable many years ago, couldn't forget it, and searched to find it.
No-it doesn't have a succinct (predictable) plotline. It is the randomness of the murders that is truly cautionary. A girl hitchhiking, a woman whose car has stalled, a woman with a broken air-condition, and so on.
The scenes are intense. Generally the women become leery-and their fear is palpable. They try to extract themselves from the situation, but generally fail.
The one scene, where a girl is attempting to escape through a field had me on the edge of my seat. As a matter of fact, every scene where I could see a murder coming did. "Hollywood" horror flicks do not affect me so. I routed for the escape of the victims, but to little or no avail.
In my estimation, the directing was right on-as was the acting. I prefer realism for intensity.
This movie stands on its own. Why must it follow the book?
