Perfect cast and a good story
just watch it!
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
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 !
The title sounds like it is a crime-thriller, that's what I was anticipating. But it was very different, especially at each stage when development takes a new facet. Totally unexpected, the character played by Christopher Lloyd. I had some doubt, but my guesses were wrong on the basis of genre. That was the best part of this film with a kind of dark comedy atmosphere.Based on the first book in the trilogy of the same name. An Irish- British psychological-thriller. Kind of like a B movie, but much better production quality. It has been weeks that I saw this film, but only now I'm reviewing it, yet it still feels like I saw it yesterday, despite I've seen dozens of films in between. It's going to be just a cult-film, not cult-classic.Because of being a non-Hollywood film, the concept had worked for me. It's about a teenager in a small town who keep witnesses strange disappearance of people. Knowing what's going on, he could not convince others about it. So he had to deal with it all by himself and how the tale ends come with a little twist. A good film, at least it would be for a few people, particularly those who like small scale suspense-thriller.5/10
The only spoiler here is with respect to this film's genre.The first 95% of the film is a good psychological thriller, but without warning it suddenly becomes supernatural horror at the end.That makes a really bad ending for a psychological thriller, and a not so great everything else for a supernatural horror film.
In spite of its good casting choices, I Am Not A Serial Killer, fails to impress.This is a "dead on arrival", B grade horror thriller, that appropriately starts and ends in a morgue. Its a film that's short on both horror and thrills. Its pacing is far, far too languid to really hold even the most patient of viewers attention. This is exacerbated by a rather gloomy, austere atmosphere that permeates the whole film, further sucking it dry of any kind of vitality and energy. The casting choices are good and for a low budget flick the acting is for the most part, pretty decent. Its simply a shame the script for this film was not more energetic, infused with pace, dread and a sense of foreboding.All key ingredients in any decent scare fest.Four out of ten from me.
