Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

sol1218 ***SPOILER*** Something like a cross between "American Psycho" which was released just six months earlier and "Se7an" the film "Sanctimony" has to do with this serial killer stalking the streets of Vancouver Canada cutting out body parts, eyes tongues and ears, of his murdered victims. There's no mystery who this psycho killer is since were introduced to him stock market whiz Tom Gerrick, Casper Van Dien, as soon as he makes his appearance on screen.Successful beyond words in everything that he does Tom is now interested in spicing up his boring life by killing people and getting away with his crimes. The only problem for Tom is that he feels that the local police are not quite up to the task to catch him in being worthy opponents so he makes it easy on them by murdering and cutting out the tongue of a 16 year old hooker and himself reporting the crime to the police. This has Vancouver homicide policeman Jim Renart, Michael Pare, and his woman partner Dorothy Smith, Jenny Rubin, interview Tom as in him being the person who first discovered her body. With all the evidence that Tom is not the innocent person that he makes himself out to be he'll still let go due to the work his high price lawyer. With him being bored to death in being right all the time Tom now really sticks his neck out in ,like in the movie "Se7en", egging on the police to arrest him by kidnapping the cop in charge of the hooker's murder Jim Renart's wife Susan, Catherine Oxenberg, and leaving her hanging outside her apartment window with a noose tied around her neck. This would have Susan's unsuspecting husband open the door thus pulling the lever, or turning the door knob, that will drop her in mid air breaking her pretty neck and killing her!The film also has an unrelated snuff film sequence where a young women is brutally murdered on video tape at this extreme fight club in the city with policeman Renalt present not more then a few yards away from the murder scene and never having a clue to what's happening. If that wasn't enough we have Tom invited to this major TV talk show to tell the audience, in the studio and watching on TV, the secret of his amazing "success" in and out of the stock market. Tom noticeably losing his cool in the mindless questions he's being asked suddenly flips out, after giving a long rambling and mindless speech on the human condition, and to the complete shock of everyone watching slices the throat of the talk show host Nat Deveaux just because he was going to a station brake!***SPOILERS*** Tom again loses it when he finds out that his killing in the market, that he expected to make millions on, was going down the tubes together with his stock portfolio then for reasons known only to himself, who by then had gone completely insane, heads for his ex fiancée's Eve's (Tanja Reichert), whom he just broke up with the night before, wedding ceremony with a new soon to be husband and without as much as saying a word guns her down and all the guests invited there! By now there was no way for the writer director Uwe Boll to salvage this turkey of a movie so it was up to Officer Renart to mercifully end it and save those of us watching as well as those in the movie any more undo suffering.

ValerieJeanB My friend & I rented this movie and within the first 5 mins we had no idea what was going on. It felt like it should have been over within the first 15 mins. It was a terrible movie, my little brother could have been a better actor than some of the ones in the movie, and the plot (if you can call it that) was full of holes. Never would I recommend this movie to my worst enemy, yet anybody I actually like.

Trudy (trajedy99) Was this a rip off of "American Psycho" or was I just imagining things? Despite the fact that I quite like Michael Pare, this film was bad, bad, bad. Save your time and your money - watch "Bone Daddy" instead. PS A detective chasing bad guys in a VW Beetle, PULEEZ.

joeygirl72000 Sanctimony is a movie that is not rated here the US but it is kind of scary. I think this, well, kids shouldn't see it alone thats for sure. I guess it was ok, just scary! Casper Van Dien was excellent, he is a very good actor who can play horrific characters real good! I would give Sanctimony a 7!
