A brilliant and charismatic, yet psychotic serial killer communicates with other active serial killers and activates a cult of believers following his every command.
Former FBI agent Ryan Hardy is brought on board as a consultant when the serial killer he arrested many years before, Joe Carroll, escapes from prison killing several guards in the process. Although ...
The FBI estimates there are currently over 300 active serial killers in the United States. What would happen if these killers had a way of communicating and connecting with each other? What if they were able to work together and form alliances across the country? What if one brilliant psychotic serial killer was able to bring them all together and activate a following?Written by

Everytime an Agent or Policeofficer getting attacked and killed. None are trying to wave the attack. Not even if they are several agents in the same spot. None of them reacts in time. See more »
It's not as good as 24, though has a lot of the cinematography, pace, darkness, complexity of characters.
Kept me gripped with a few lulls at points.
My main gripe was that there were many elementary errors that in real life just wouldn't be made (both by Ryan's corporation and Joe's corporation, though mainly the former's).
The two or three lead characters gave really strong performances and many of the Followers also demonstrate great loony cult character psychopaths.
Eery throughout.
