Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDylan McDermott wore a prosthetic belly to add weight and help transform his appearance.
- GoofsThe rifle used by the father & son characters has scope mounts but no scope has been fitted to it. Since the rifle has no front sight it is practically useless for any sort of shooting.
This is an exaggeration. Certainly the rifle could be used to shoot oneself in the head, limbs, digits, etc., as well as other people in the same room, even possibly a target in a shooting gallery. It would be of limited use for distance shooting or hunting, but not totally useless.
- Quotes
[first lines]
Tyler Burnside: [narrating] The first murder happened before I was born. The killer called himself Clovehitch, after his favorite type of knot. Our town lived in fear, and then, ten years ago, he stopped.

The neverending story...
At times extremely effective, deeply disturbing & uncomfortable to watch, The Clovehitch Killer is a relatively satisfying & well made film that's worth a watch - but it's also a classic example of a movie that doesn't know when to end - dragging out the resolution until you're willing the credits to start rolling; every scene feels like it's setting up the conclusion until it's followed by yet another & you're left impatiently waiting for the crescendo, which is tedious, frustrating & disappointing.
However, the performances sell the entire film & there's palpable tension between characters in emotionally charged scenes so the conflict is incredibly well done & regardless of its faults, it's still a good film - despite being unnecessarily long & drawn out.
