This is a B-movie through and through, but thanks in large part to a deep cast of familiar faces and reliable character actors, it's a solid crime thriller that respects the true-life blueprint of the story.

Rated: 3/4

Variety

This trashy trawl through a fictionalized version of the “West Mesa Murders" is the kind of dubiously moralizing exploitation exercise that makes Sound of Freedom look like a noble class act by comparison.

It's interesting, but you have to know going in that the basic case was never solved, and they stay true to that.

The culprit behind these murders has still never been found, which this screenplay mostly uses as fodder for a bit of psycho-thriller exploitation.

Cinemalogue

Turning a true-life serial killer case into a collection of cliches and contrivances, this derivative thriller never musters much suspense or sympathy for its characters — whether alive or dead.

Couldn't find anything else to rent so I watched the trailer and thought how bad can it be. Yep, it's THAT bad! Wished I had looked at RT first, big waste of $!

The plot is interesting but the delivery of it was not logical and acting was disappointing. Only good actors were the ones who played Detectives Ortega and Young. Mel was medium at best but barely in it. Shame, as the story had potential.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Terrible movie overall. Bad acting, poor story telling throughout the whole movie, tedious ending. 50 cent is the only decent part about it, but that doesnt change the fact that this movie is insanely bad and NOT worth your watch.

Probably the worst movie I have ever seen! Horrendous acting and terrible writing. Sadly I was dumb enough to rent this movie on Amazon. If there was a way to give this a negative five star rating I would have. They should pay me for my time.

The script was bad and the acting was weird and awkward. Any of the good acting was undercut by the terrible script. The movie was interesting because it was fast paced and the story is interesting, but I found myself laughing at moments meant to be serious.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars
