Now, I must admit I like the slasher movies that involve the psycho who hacks over-sexed teens to bits and just won't die, but I really enjoyed this film. With a title so basic, you won't believe how complex it is.

You already know things are bad when the movie begins. And teh movies depends a lot upon flashbacks, which I personally enjoy. It makes you have to put the story together. The two main characters/victims are opposites-a well-respected doctor who lives in the suburbs with his family and a young single photographer trying to make ends meet-but you get a glimpse into their lives through the flashbacks. And you actually get to like the two main characters, which makes the progression of the movie almost sad.

The" killer" creates a web of killers who kill in order to survive(say that five times fast!). So you don't know who the mastermind isuntil the very end, and even when you find out, the movie doesn't really end.
