REVIEWS
 

 

'A full blooded portrait of amorality run amuck...sharply handled pic is worthy of limited theatrical distribution, though there's a nasty sting at the end designed to rob home viewers of a good night's sleep'

- Dennis Harvey, Variety

 

'A philosophising serial killer films his exploits in order to make the ultimate horror movie, in a British film that is actually pretty scary - and extremely violent'

- Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

 

'Insidiously scary video diary of a vainglorious serial killer'

- Ian Johns, The Times  

 

'Howarth is good as the smooth talking psychopath'

- Roger Clark, The Independent 

 

'Effective Brit horror...scary and inventive'

- Derek Malcom, The Evening Standard

 

'Horrifically funny Brit Flick...just don't take your mum to see it'

- David Edwards, The Daily Mirror 

 

'Chilling and flamboyant'

- Perry Seibert, The New York Times 

 

'Has much to say on the topics of horror films and societal violence and the bloody intersection of the two'

- Marc Savlov, The Austin Chronicle

 

'Cerebral, realistic and troubling...a meditation on the morality, complicity and hypocrisy of voyeurism in the age of reality TV...has a lot to recommend, not the least of which is its unflinching integrity'

- Chris Garcia, American-Statesman 

 

'An inventive take on the serial killer genre...knowingly ironic, gut churningly authentic and highly watchable...manages to have it's cake and eat it too'

- Anwar Brett, Film Review 

 

'Smart British flick...with censor-baiting scenes of murder most foul'

- Jamie Russell, Total Film 

 

'Grubbily authentic and shockingly brutal...one sick little puppy'

- Jamie Russell, BBCi 

 

'A powerful piece of British film making with an unnerving edge...the real horror of this film starts when you leave the cinema'

-Amy Beeton, BBC-i

 

'A decent enough stab at that sub-genre of horror films, where we not only accompany the killer as he goes about his bloody business, but almost come to see him as the most nihilistic of anti-heroes'

- Richard Luck, Channel Four 

 

'Stomps in the clay footprints set by Henry:Portrait Of A Serial Killer'

- Jay Slater, Hot Dog 

 

'One of the cleverest films I have seen in a long while'

- Jeremy Knox, Film Threat

 

'Wincingly nasty...one of the best British movies of this year'

- Alan Jones, Shivers

 

'Takes the notorious home invasion scene from HENRY: Portrait Of A Serial Killer

and multiplies it by 10'

- Tony Timpone, Fangoria

 

'Disarmingly real...an ice pick meticulously inserted into your temple'

- Rod Gudino, Rue Morgue 

 

'Gripping, funny and frightening, an occasionally wicked commentary on horror movies, reality TV and that uneasy line between audience voyeurism and participation'

- Don Kaye, Dread Central 

 

'A clever narrative twist, intelligently handled themes, thought provoking dialogue; a multi layered lead loony and a biting bleak sense of humor...this was more than just a film, it was a visceral experience'

- John Fallon, Arrow In The Head 

 

'Thought provoking, mesmerizing, compelling...from the performances; to the way the flick was shot, to the grounded and brutal execution of the murders… I truly forgot that what I was watching was a piece of fiction'

- John Fallon, Arrow In The Head

 

'Violent, sadistic and amoral'

- Kevin O Reilly, DVD Times 

 

'A picture of urban atrocity which takes the psycho film to its very limits...the most incisive externalisation of a murderer's thought process ever to be depicted in a British film...kill to see it!''

- Darrell Buxton, The Spinning Image

 

'Think MAN BITES DOG with a RING style punch line and you get somewhere close to the fear this film delivers...goes for the jugular and does more than deliver on the gore and body count quotas, enough to satisfy even the most desensitised gore hounds among us'

- Lee Bailes, The Rumour Machine 

 

'Perverse charm and uncompromising violence, this is one genre film that deserves to be huge'

- Kevin Lyon, eofftv 

 

'An intense film that has an intelligent excuse for each and every horror it drops on us'

- Paul Higson, The Zone

 

'Graphic and visceral...the tone, feel and atmosphere make the experience feel quite unnerving...some people will be unable to watch and others will have to, because they know they shouldn't'

- Alec Ballard, The Film Asylum 

 

'So mesmerizing and compelling that you're often not sure when you should stop laughing and when you should start wincing...if you get a chance to watch this in a packed cinema, take a moment to look around the auditorium and note the guilty expressions...it only goes to show that the line between black humor and dark horror is a fine one'

- Smokey, The Zombie Keeper 

 

'Combines the reality-style filming of The Blair Witch Project, the self-awareness of Scream, and the shocking brutality of Cannibal Holocaust and puts them together into one unforgettable package'.

- Eric Newell, Bloody Good Horror 

 

'Disturbing, funny, and grim, it cuts much deeper than your average slasher...reveals a relationship between director, killer, accomplice, victim and viewer that is a little too close for comfort'.

- Anton Bitel, The Movie Gazette 

 

'A grainy glimpse into a modern urban nightmare that will jolt the viewer out of their soft-focus ITV daze'

- Matt Hill, New-Noise.Net 

 

'A 911 for the police, Exhibit A for the prosecution.'

Doc Sarcofiguy, Count Gore 

 

'A brutal, yet entertaining and intelligent film...Max's final words will run a chill down your spine'

- Nflames, Horror Express
