 What do you get with a fairly interesting idea that has been dragged through every cliche in the book and saddled with an actress who is hopelessly out of her depth? "Alphabet Killer".
It is a fairly straightforward serial-killer-in-the-supernatural-world movie, one half "Ringu" ghosts haunting the main character (granted, the ghosts look like they were pillaged from the American remake and sequels of "Pulse"), one half crappy prime time cop drama. I don't have anything against Elisha Dushku, but she was not at all at the level to play this character as anything but a doe-eyed hysterical mess who flails her way through the movie, populated with an enormous array of character actors from Cary Elwes to Michael Ironside to Timothy Hutton.
The movie was unimpressive from start to finish. |
