what about Citizen X?


I saw Citizen X (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112681/) years ago and it is a very impressive movie, stressful from beginning to end, hope this movie with Malcolm McDowell dont dissapoint me :)

Citizen X is an excellent movie, one of the best of the true life serial killer movies - probably Citizen X and Monster are the best I've seen, most of them are pretty bad movies. It's available cheap on dvd in the US too.

Citizen X is a much larger, emotional, and more clear telling if this story. By all means, see Citizen X over Evilenko for story purposes. McDowell was truly magnicficent in the role of "Andrei Chikatilo" in Evilenko, it's really a shame that he wasn't given a better telling of the story to play in.

The movie Evilennko was superbly bad in my opinion.
I have rated this my all time lowest score so far on the Imdb.
Malcolm Mcdowell was, well, Malcolm McDowell.

Malcolm McDowell is a power unto himself, and thus, does a more than adequate telling of this heinous character, but Citizen X is IMHO, a better film.
