Slow paced ? No ! It's called great character development and great story which you want more of ! Amazing script, acting and excellent executed! Christopher Lloyd is fantastic in this role, and it's a joy to see him act out his role. The movie itself has an late 80s early 90s aura around it, which is great.The soundtrack, atmosphere and the way the movie was filmed felt authentic and real and that combined with everything else just made this movie so awesome. I really can't compare it to anything, but I felt like if the movie Southbound, The Void and the TV show Stranger Things would have a love child it would be named I am not a series killer. When Lloyd quoted William Blake it gave me goosebumps and a chill down my spine. A must watch ! 9/10 for an amazing horror, thriller, drama !

As winter bites in a small town in Minnesota we meet a young lad with homicidal thoughts. His mom is a school teacher and she arranges for him to see a counsellor who is trying to stop him acting on the thoughts that are emanating from 'the dark side'.Round about the same time people start to turn up dead. They are not just dead however, as that would not be spooky enough. No they are all missing certain parts of their, erstwhile, mortal coils and the police are devoid of clues as to what is happening under their very, bloodied, noses – metaphorically speaking of course.Now this is a film that is basically an Irish effort but has been made in the US as its story clearly works a lot better in that setting. The acting is all great but hats off to Christopher Lloyd ('Back to the future' trilogy) as Mr Crowley who can manage octogenarian frail and threateningly evil all in the same scene. There is a fair bit of blood letting and scenes of an autopsy nature so best to avoid a light supper whilst viewing. The acting is all very good indeed and the ending may not be to everyone's taste but the clues are sprinkled throughout and so I found it more than OK. So for a bit of blood spatter violence and a whole ton of vengeance this may be one for you.

I didn't expect much from this movie from watching the trailer. But there are surprises, twists and tension in this movie. It has its creepy moments but it isn't exactly a horror movie. I think the comparisons to Donnie Drako are justified. It does feel like a classical movie. And you do get to feel for the characters. We enjoyed this.

It is such a tragedy when a film is so well done and then BAM- it goes to hell at the end. Max Records gives a fantastic performance of a teenager whose dark impulses frighten those around him because they do not understand the mindset of someone different. He is diagnosed as a sociopath from one of the most unethical doctors on film. He lacks empathy and it affects his life significantly. Despite his difficulty expressing or understanding empathy, he is drawn to help an elderly man next door (a great Christopher Lloyd) with secrets of his own. In the meantime, people are dying. This movie went so many interesting places and I loved some of the territory I could identify with. The performances were also top- notch. And then BAM- the ending takes all the best parts of the script and shreds them and wastes so much of the potential of this story. I enjoyed everything until the last ten minutes so much that I still had to give it a 6. It is worth the watch for how good it was and what it could have been with an ending grounded in reality. I understand that it is based on a book- but the book should have had a different ending too if it resembles this story the same way.
