Review of The Alphabet Killer (2008) by Bruce B — 09 Jan 2009

:rotten: :rotten: (out of four).

[color=lime]Interesting story, but poorly staged. The execution leaves you baffled at why it was even attempted in the first place.[/color].

[color=#00ff00]Eliza Dushku is pretty good as detective investigating a string of child murders. Her own mental state is drawn into question the deeper she submerges herself into the case.[/color].

[color=#00ff00]The film purports to be based on a true story, but it must be in the most loosest of degrees. Throughout ghostly figures of the victims appear to her in various [b][i]Grudge[/i][/b]-like incarnations, making the picture more horror/sci-fi than anything close to reality. The ending itself is so poor that underscores the entire premise and leaves one scratching their head.[/color].
