Well,
Serial Beauty on the surface appears to be a solid film, with a solid cast, and an okay script, however, it all falls apart within the first 20 minutes of the film.
I rented this film on Amazon Prime, and for the first time since becoming a Prime member, I've actually requested my money back for a purchase.
This film is amateur at best, and by no means am I a professional filmmaker, but I've seen enough movies to know when something is not professionally made.
My biggest complaint besides the quality is the messiness of the script, as this film goes 15 different ways, and gets lost 15 more.
Please stray away if possible, or at least watch when it's streaming for free.

This was an extremely impressive and epic suspense film. The title itself, Serial Beauty, is intriguing and the movie does not disappoint. There are many twists and turns in this story about police detectives as they hunt down a very mysterious serial killer who seems to be targeting beautiful female victims specifically. All the actors did a solid job, especially Alexandra Grossi, I thought she was great. This film is well written and well directed. I especially liked all the fantastic Los Angeles locations. Sigal Erez is a talented filmmaker. If you're looking for a great suspense movie, give this movie a watch.
Where do I even start...
I checked this film out on a pure whim with the internal hopes that it would have some promise, and wow, I must say, this incredibly let me down.
If you happen to read other reviews, you will see that a lot of the complaints surround the acting and the camera work, which didn't bother me too much (I've seen worse), however, it was more the plot that made absolutely no sense, and was honestly all over the place.
I guess I went in expecting something that had Egytpian-related undertones, with some horror elements. Still, I was either misled by the poster/trailer or just misunderstood the entire concept.
Regardless, avoid if possible, unless you can make a game out of it.

Serial Beauty, a mystery/thriller film co-written and directed by Sigal Erez, has such a fascinating concept at the core of its plot. I enjoyed the characters and the mystery that drove the story forward. I also love the title
- it's clever and perfect for the movie! Really fitting. The acting is solid as well. I enjoyed the suspense and felt that the story contained a lot of twists and turns which kept it moving and kept me invested, wanting to know what would happen next. It also has solid production value for an indie movie. Overall, this is a really solid independent film that's worth watching!
What a nice surprise. This is a fun thriller/dry comedy with some nice performances. Serial Beauty is about two cops trying to track down a killer who's turning his victims into mannequins and works of art. Yes, you have to overlook a few things, and the cinematography at times is a little inconsistent, but I really enjoyed this film, mostly because of the dry humor.
Serial Beauty also succeeds because the acting is really good; the cast all seem to be on the same page. I thought the character Vadim the mortician, played by Tihomir Dukic, did a really good job. He's a little over the top, but I like that he made that choice. He's super creepy and fixated on the beauty of these dead women, which is unnerving and plays into the world writer and director Sigal Erez created. I don't think this film is for everyone, and again, that's why I like it even more. I don't mind the rough edges. I can see what Sigal is doing, and I enjoyed it. It is also unpredictable and has a few twists, which was nice to watch.

- TriviaStoner, having named his snake Ruth, then gives his own account of the Biblical true story of Ruth, and goes on to state that Ruth and Naomi ran away together to Moab. The reality is that Naomi, her husband Elimelech and their sons Mahlon and Chilion left Israel during a famine and travelled southeast to Moab, whose people were descended from Lot, the nephew of Abraham. The two lads married two Moabite girls, Orpah and Ruth, and then the three men in the course of time died, leaving all three women as widows. Naomi decided to return to Israel, and Ruth remained with her - this was the loyalty Stoner was talking about. Through her second marriage, this time to Boaz, Ruth became the ancestor of both King David and the Lord Jesus Christ (in the flesh).
