Fantastic!
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Hmmm... such a powerful name for a low low budget movie which was totally beyond my expectations. The beginning is somehow compromising and interesting, but as the movie runs the joy fastly diminishes. I must reckon that there is actually one sole fact which increases the grade of this film: the big twist present in the end.

Not recommended.
Well I've now seen the movie A Killer Within.If ever a film deserved its place on the 99 cents sale rack at Walmart this is it. I've adored Sean Young ever since she played Rachael in Bladerunner...but this was awful!The bloody incessant music, obvious product placement, dreadful cutting and amateur shooting....... even the DVD case cover bears no relation to the story. And Ben does moody too well! This character shouldn't have been moody! Sorry Ben, I felt like switching off after five minutes but sat through it so your sake. Don't put it on your resume for Petes sake! I just hope you took the money and ran. It should have made a couple of payments on the Lexus!Coincidentally I started watching this on Thanksgiving Day. It sure was a turkey....... with all the trimmings!Pete Ps. if you do buy it, use the case to replace any of your damaged ones. That way you'll get your moneys worth.
By saying bad, I don't mean the acting, though there are some low moments: where did they get this kid from? still, this isn't the bad part. Even the story itself is very predictable, but had some (unused) potential.So, what did bother me? The omnipresent music! During the whole movie you listen permanently to some unfitting classical music, which gets incredibly annoying after the first 10 minutes. Once noticed, you won't get a break. I know, every movie needs a good soundtrack. But sometimes it is better to manage with less. My advice: don't waste your time!
I liked the plot. Kept me guessing till the end but the acting was shoddy and the direction was pretty lousy. Intitally i guessed the killer but then the twists in the movie took me farther n farther away from the truth. A lot of twists in the story which actually kept me sitting in front of the TV to watch the entire movie.The end was such a waste to the whole plot. It could have been filmed really well and would have made watching the whole movie worthwhileThe director could have done a much better job with the movie.A movie i could watch once if i had nothing better to do.
