Alicia I love this movie so much
Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
Verity Robins Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
trashgang Kane Hodder, what e really nice person he is. I have met him in the flesh and he agreed to stand together with me on a picture. That picture is now here hanging on the walls. I will meet him again in October 2010 on another convention. What a movie list he has, being all kind of weirdo's. Here he's in the movie made by Michael Feifer. A director who is obsessed with making movies about serial killers. Kane gives a great performance but as with so many flicks about serial killers they are a let down. So far they are almost based on the person but don't reflect his life. I can only say that To Catch A Killer (oop in all ways) is so far the only flick that keeps up with the facts. Maybe Zodiac too but hey, I'm loosing track now myself. This movie is more into the mind of the killer and his family than about the victims. No dates are given, no nothing so I can say that it could be any killer in particular. Okay, they uses his name and the fact about the church and Park City is true...The good thing is that when something is happening it is gory. But you will have to wait 35 minutes before that and than another 30 minutes. Sad but true. A bit weak but Kane keeps the movie together. And don't get me wrong, you don't have to make it explicit because it all happened and we have to think to the survivors or families involved but again, no info is given about BTK at the end of the movie. The man said it himself, nobody is talking me, nobody notice BTK and that's why I could kill for 30 years. So I can state, ,that's why nobody will notice this movie...
Woodyanders Kane Hodder gives an excellent and convincing performance as Dennis L. Rader, the infamous sadistic serial killer who tied up and tortured his victims prior to savagely murdering them. Writer/director Michael Feifer presents Rader as a complex and fascinating bundle of contradictions: he's a dedicated, but overzealous compliance officer, a loving family man with a wife and two daughters, a boy scout leader, and even the president at a local church, but also suffered from sexual problems and an irresistible urge which compelled him to commit these atrocious and inhumane acts of calculated murder (the scenes with Rader manhandling his hapless victims are extremely harsh, brutal and disturbing). Moreover, Feifer admirably refuses to explain Rader; instead he presents in a stark and unflinching manner Rader as the ruthless and vicious murderous beast that he was. Hodder really holds the film together with his first-rate portrayal of this horrifying human monster; it's without a doubt the best acting he's ever done to date. The rest of the cast is equally sound, with especially stand-out work from Amy Lyndon as Rader's proud, loyal wife Susan and John Burke as no-nonsense Detective Lutz. The last third which shows the severe impact Rader's heinous actions had on his family is positively devastating. Matt Steinauer's polished cinematography and the shuddery score by Andres Boulton and Jermaine Stegall are both up to speed. Really strong and upsetting stuff.
dbborroughs Kane Hodder stars in a film version of the story of the BTK killer. He was a loving family man by day and a serial killer by night. His rampage went on for decades. the film is a twisted descent into the mind of the killer as we watch him do horrible things one minute and the be kind and loving the next. As these sort of "based on a true story" films go the film is pretty good and disturbing enough to make you wonder why any one would want to be locked in the mind of a killer for even 90 minutes. The film works because of Hodder who is great both a family man and psychopath, making it difficult to watch the scenes with his family because we know whats lurking underneath. If you like this sort of thing I'd say give it a try, me I'm going to take a bath.
snarkyone1965 First off people should at least use a Google search to find out what the BTK serial killer did and that he did actually exist as our friend from New Zealand failed to do. Yes, the BTK serial killer did exist this is not one of a series of films of made up serial killers from some company named BTK. Dennis Rader avoided detection and held people in fear for many years before being apprehended. He called himself BTK because he would Bind, Torture, and then Kill his victims. He operated in the Wichita, KS area United States. This film is not a blow by blow account of his misdeeds but rather an assumption of many of them blending truths with suppositions. While this film is not going to win awards it is a look into the twisted mind of a serial killer that seems to fascinate while also disgusting the observers. If serial killers are a subject of interest to you then you will find this film worthwhile, if not then you might want to pass.
