Remember, oh gorehounds… The blood doesn’t make the movie and this is another fine example. Then there are some that could have been better. Other on-screen slashings shown are pretty decent. One that comes to mind is blade to eye removal, which is always nice. The gore score is around a five or six, but some pretty brutal clips are still present. This is more of a psychological thriller than slasher flick. However, with Nightstalker and this film, I think the combination of the two went very well together. I believe it takes away from the disturbing content. Usually, I am against metal in horror films (although I am a huge metal fan). The semi-metal score was decent, but I personally thought they could have gone with something a little heavier (and maybe even a bit more Satanic to fit along with the plot… Decide, perhaps). There are twists throughout the film that keep your eyes glued to the screen (besides Alicia Silverstone in her stunning glory). The shower scenes with the killer almost threw me off a bit, but I caught on pretty quickly. Even then, some may be hard for them to understand. A wreck scene from the first person point of view inside of the car is exciting as well.Ī viewer could get lost in the plot if he or she does not watch this from the beginning. Mundane computer effects are also used (along with the major ones) to cover flesh over the previous wounds. The visions through the eyes of the killer are typical post- production through the camera tricks, but still remain effective all the same. The computer generated effects have a Lawnmower Man feel to them, but are obviously more advanced. Still, this small and (for the most part) overlooked aspect does not take away from the over all entertainment of the movie. Some of the wounds are done well, but most of the blood looks as if it were just splashed on the actor, some in creative patterns. The computer Special Effects (as much as I’m against them) sort of outweighs the practical end. He is quite seductive to his victims as he reels them in for the kill.įrom the very beginning of the film, the viewer is subjected to two sides of religion and a double dose of murder. He kind of has a Jim Morrison/ Richard Ramirez vibe to him. Jeremy Sisto (Stephen King’s Nightmares and Dreamscapes, Wrong Turn, The Outer Limts/ Twilight Zone and Dead and Breakfast) does a pretty good job as the psycho killer that is stalking Regina. The atmosphere as everything comes together (and begins to fall to pieces) between the couple almost has a Jack/Wendy Torrence kind of vibe to it. Christine Lahti (Obsessed and The Fear Inside) also portrays the role of a confused mother that’s losing her mind, while watching her husband lose his own. Jeff Goldblum (the remake of The Fly and the original Legend of Sleepy Hollow) does a terrific job of playing a man that is progressively losing his mind… or is he? Alicia Silverstone (The Crush, The Babysitter, True Crime) is just as astonishing on the eyes as she always has been and does a swell job playing the overprotected and stalked daughter. That’s not saying that the rest was bad (at all), but the dreams are exceptionally tremendous and a visual attack on the senses. The dream sequences of the film are probably the best cinematography throughout the film. The Stephen King/ Dean Koontz tag references are present as The Shining (although Stephen hated the original film) is mentioned at the very beginning of the film (Dean Koontz is also mentioned in Desperation, the film adaptation, written by Stephen King himself).
