The next film up for discussion will be the 2008 film how to
be a serial killer written/directed by Luke Ricci and starring Dameon Clarke, Matthew
Gray Gubler, and Laura Regan. The basic premise is a sort of mocumentary of a
serial killer who decides to teach the secrets of his “satisfying” career to a
video store clerk that he has decided to make his apprentice. The film is not
as gorey as you would expect them to be in the situations given especially for
an R rated film .I wouldn’t say this is an A-list movie but it certainly does not
deserve to be written off I do admit there were some slow points but it was an
enjoyable watch especially if you happen to be into the darker kind of
psychologically probing films. It puts you into what can be conceived as the
mindset of a serial killer and the rules that govern what makes them a serial
killer. To me the film had a lot of potential and maybe wasn’t marketed right
because the ratings I looked up for this film just seemed completely uncalled
for and should be given another chance.

This kind of seems interesting in the fact that the cover of the movie doesn't really go with picture that your description put in my head. Maybe this is why the ratings weren't as good? Because parts were either taken too seriously or not serious enough. Obviously I don't know since I've never seen it, but because of the discrepancy that seems like it could make sense.
ReplyDeletethis movie sounds wicked cool! obviously ive never seen it before but it does sound pretty interesting.
