A serial killer who is just passing through..At the time this intellectual thriller was a PG -18!Well today...time has passed and I'm not even sure it would get a PG-12.
The director had big ambitions.Richard Berry portrays a serial killer with frames of mind.A smiling nice one searching for compassion, affection, company .No dramatization,no suspense,the viewer is supposed to find the killer's behavior "normal" .There's just one problem:we know nothing about the gentle criminal's background and all that he does does not concern us .Carole Laure's part is not credible either.She's supposed to be a great star,but she does not have any bodyguards,wherever she goes.And,as one of the cops points out,she might (must) have appreciated to be used as a bait.And what cops!All are senseless brutes,always bullying their suspects.There's no difference -that's what the flick tends to prove- between us (the Police) and them (the criminals).
This is a deadly dull film.
