The Killing Floor

Starting out pretty decent, about mid-way through the film starting going downhill, and really fizzled to a bomb at the end. Even with a good creepy tone set early on, the movie just doesn't seem to go anywhere and I eventually found myself just wishing it would end. The lead actor is not very convincing in his role and just seems like he's bored with the script. Unfortunately the other characters are rather one-dimensional as well. We really don't get to know these people enough to care what happens to them, and the predictable plot just doesn't leave much to the imagination. I give it a three out of ten; watch it only if you can't find something better.

A success and very busy literary agent (David) who has just bought a great penthouse apartment, runs into a strange scenario: someone is stalking him and that really drives him crazy! As the action goes on, he discovers that someone documented his moves quite precisely and that he's rather exposed to the attacker's will.

David is a sporty, strong, determined guy, who unfortunately has to let go his emotional part... In his conception, if you're not straight-forward you can't "make him care". But this determination is his very downfall.

The movie has some interesting twists, the male character is quite dynamic, surprising and rather intelligent. All his interactions are thrilling to watch, so you'll get attracted to the story. All his dialogs with women will at least make you smile.

The actual pulse of this movie is not that high. I sometimes felt that we learn some things that aren't important to the plot. Things get worse as the story advances. Strangely, I think the best part of this movie is the ending. Like in most modern movies, the last 5 minutes reveal everything that you couldn't put together during the story. And get ready for something really surprising.

Another thing to mention in this movie is the soundtrack. Not very spectacular, but perfectly fitting the action.

Gave the movie 8/10 and I definitely consider this one a good way to spend 1h and a half. Try it, it might make you think about people you tend to overlook :)

I watched this movie with low expectations. There were no ratings on IMDb, I had never heard of any of the actors, and all the reviews were praising it as if it were the best thing ever made; which led me to believe the only people who reviewed this movie were the ones who were working on it. I was wrong. The movie holds a very steady pace for the most part. Not a whole lot happens during the beginning; they tried to make it into a thriller way too early, and were unsuccessful. But about halfway through, the characters and story really started to shine. Just when you think you know who to point fingers at, you realize you're wrong-- again and again. Towards the end, the thrills just keep on coming until the story finally unfolds. It's enough to keep just about anyone's attention.

The acting, writing and directing were 100x better than I thought they would be, especially considering the obvious low budget. My only real complaint was the acting done by Marc Blucas. He just seemed to be over-doing it a bit. Too articulate and too serious about everything he said. Everyone else did a fine job, though. Especially Shiri Appleby. I really hope someone spots her, I'd love to see her again. Her character was spot-on, her acting was top notch, and she's as pretty as can be.

The Killing Floor is about as close as you can come to the border between B movie and Hollywood thriller... without the multi-million dollar budget.

If any of the cast or crew read this.. great job guys!

This movie really entertained me and kept me thinking all the way to the end, unfortunately all that let the film down were the obviously tight funds expended to make this film.

I think the lead roles were played well but the policeman really let it down I think.

Otherwise, as I said really good story.

Other than this small but resounding problem I think the film was a really good attempt at the originally story although I think the book would be better.
