Not that bad. Ripe for a re-make SE7EN/Silence of the Lambs style

I just saw it on the IFC and wanted to laugh to some really bad film but I started to kinda get into the plot. There is plenty of bad acting, but I kept thinking that the same script in the hands of a young Michael Mann from the Manhunter's days could do a VERY good film out of this story.

Loved the L.A. footage shown

My new classic from now on.

I could see it working if they updated it and made Kirk a Iraq war veteran.

Oh shut UP. I'm sick to death of remakes.
