Review of I Know Who Killed Me (2007) by Mattk — 20 Jun 2008

Just checked this out on Starz. It's as bad as they say. The direction is horrible. All of the bright blues and reds are a desparate attempt at mystery and artistry, but it looks so astonishingly cheap that it starts to feel like a sixteen-year-old's MySpace page (OMG, it's all in black and white.

..except blue! How did you do that???). It completely destroys any tension. The scenes were strung together with the finesse of a high school student on iMovie. One scene drags along a police station, showing "MISSING" flyers and all of the cops in the station, only to pan to the sheriff who makes some smartass comment about bingo night as the scene is fading to black.

This was the turning point for me---this was not just any average bad movie, this was a clunker for the ages. I won't get in to the twin stigmata crap, the absurd finale, the awful acting, and the terrible script that brought it all to fruition.

For all of those who defend this awful, awful film, perhaps you just need to see what a good film like this looks like: go rent Seven. Everything about it is exponentially better. Seriously.
