A police officer with a crumbling marriage has to deal with serial killer that has been stalking his beach side community.
This is a deliberately shot and deliberately paced film that doesn't really work. The glacial pace and the odd presentation make it hard to get into (and I won't talk about the WTF genre shifts). The pacing allows our minds to wander and the presentation makes it hard to connect to. While eventually learn the reason for why it seems off, but by the time it happens we really don't care.
It also doesn't help that this really isn't a serial killer film but the tale of a man trying to make his relationship work. There is no real suspense. There is another genre operating here which I won't go in to because it's inclusion just confuses everything and reminds you of other, better, films.
I was disappointed.
A miss.
