I don't review films often. And I certainly don't often give films this high a rating. But I wanted to take the time to comment on The Businessman. It's a fun little slasher film that lacks a lot of the elements that make most slasher films so awful. The performances are great, and not just by the lead actors. Be on the lookout for the main character's neighbor. I actually cared a lot about the fate of some of the people in this film. That seldom happens when I'm watching this kind of movie. I liked the writing. The characters sounded like real people. About halfway through the film, I was certain about where it was heading. I could not have been more wrong. And did I mention how scary it is? This isn't a movie that tries to make you jump every 30 seconds. They don't go for cheap thrills. But when the film does try to scare you, it's very successful. I'm really impressed with what these filmmakers were able to do on such a low budget. I hope I get to see more from these guys.
