(2011) The Victim
PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER
A serial killer of missing prostitutes and escorts is on the mist of small town, co-written, directed and starring Michael Biehn as he plays. Kyle Limato recovering from a criminal past of six years. And while staying at his isolated cabin in the woods, an escort/ prostitute, Annie (Michael's real life wife at the time, Jennifer Blanc also credited as co-producer) spots his cabin and runs towards it. And by the time Kyle opens the door, Annie is frantic about an incident in which she tries to explain about two people looking for her as a result of her friend, Mary (Danielle Harris) accidentally killed by homicide detective, James Harrison (Ryan Honey credited as co-executive producer). Det James then convinces his friend, who also works in law enforcement, as DEA. Jonathan Cooger (Denny Kirkwood) to become an accessory. It's because Annie is kind of a witness to her friend, Mary's murder committed by James Harrison who accidentally broker her neck after making out with her in the middle of the woods. The first place they drive up to is Kyle's isolated cabin and it is just a matter of time they are going to cross paths again.
Michel Biehn is not bad as writer/ director except that it is way too contained to just this environment. Whereas, don't know enough about Kyle at all such as, did he used to have a job, and what was he doing before he was sent to prison, and for what did he do before he got out? In other words, how did he make his income? For his character is as ambiguous as the actions of the two detectives. Had Biehn received a much bigger budget, it might have been interesting.
