Mike (Adam Berasi) is in the process of writing the definitive book on serial killers - a bubject that fascinates him ever since he has hired neighbourhood serial killer Herman (Eddie Benevich) to kill his wife. Then though, a serial killer (Vic Badger) - who has the weird habit of talking to a severed foot in a box - kidnaps and kills his agent (Rebecca Anderson) and kidnaps his daughter ... and somehow, the serial killer obviously tries to attract the attention of Mike, because he sends him videos of all his victims tied to a chair in the nude telling their stories before he kills them.

Thing is, the serial killer isn't even real but only in Mike's mind, and Mike has killed all of these women himself - and then some people, like everybody who ever paid him avisit - and he has gotten so off the hook he ultimately even kills his daughter. Because you know, investigating serial killers has really gotten to Mike, and has gotten the better of him ...

One simply cannot deny - the basic concept of this film is pretty interesting, and quite a few scenes are suitably creepy. Unfortunately though, the film as a whole is less than a masterpiece, hampered by a bland directorial effort, a lack of narrative highlights, an absence of suspense scenes, and a rather uninvolving central performance by Adam Berasi.

And why does that guy, who is a writer, write one of his future victims a note saying "your dead" when he actually means to say "you're dead"? Now I'm not generally picky about grammar and such things, but remember, this guy's a writer, ao he should know.

Still, despite the lack of spell-check and all that, there are way worse ways to spend an hour and a quarter.
