Storyline

When Dallas FBI Agent Thomas Mackelway violates serial killer Raymond Starkey's civil rights during an unorthodox arrest, Starkey goes free and Mackelway is demoted to a remote branch of the agency in Albuquerque. His first day on the job, Mackelway investigates the murder of a traveling salesman Harold Speck, which turns out to be the first of three seemingly random killings. Or perhaps they are not random at all; the last to die is Mackelway's nemesis, Raymond Starkey. The assignment consumes him. His past mistakes haunt him. His head throbs constantly as he tries to find the link between the victims that will lead him to their killer. The case becomes increasingly gruesome and patently personal. This does not go unnoticed by his unflappable partner Fran Kulok, who knows of Mackelway's past and the demons that afflict him. Like Mackelway, she becomes drawn into the labyrinth of chilling clues, all of which point to the enigmatic Benjamin O'Ryan. O'Ryan clearly has a connection to ... Written by Sujit R. Varma

awful
30 August 2004 | by (Los Angeles, CA) – See all my reviews

There is admittedly some potential in the concept behind this film -- in the hands of Jonathan Demme or David Fincher, this story could have been something great. But this, unfortunately, is not the case with Merhige at the helm: the film meanders and stutters with pointless cliche. I felt so badly for the talented cast who were obviously struggling to get through this dreck. There is no way to identify with any of the characters' motivations -- it plays like a bunch of unrelated vignettes strung together (I had similar feelings about the semi-successful 'Shadow of the Vampire'). The pacing is slow and tedious, not unlike the equally insufferable 'Begotten'. There is nothing to grasp hold of and take from this movie. Skip this one.
