Zachary Hansen's Killer Me is a chilling psychological study of two people building a very unusual relationship. Even when you think you see what's coming, this film keeps you off-balance and draws you in to the emotional turmoil of the two lead characters. George Foster makes his character, Joseph, come alive in all his technicolor torment. Christina Kew gives a great performance as the strangely bold-yet-timid female lead (Anna) who sometimes seems almost to take her own breath away with her actions. Watching the relationship evolve between these two is fascinating, and only becomes moreso as the story unfolds.
This film is not for everyone, but will appeal to a broad range of film fans, while refusing to neatly fit into any single category. There are things in this film that we never figure out or know for certain, but one thing that is certain is that Joseph is emotionally disturbed, and suffers from post-traumatic stress syndrome. Anna is obviously not only attracted to but somehow drawn to Joseph. This is one of those rare films that succeeds in leaving the viewer satisfied without answering all the questions and filling in the blanks.
Neal Fredericks, cinematographer for THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, also filmed KILLER ME.
The promotional literature for this film says: "Killer Me is a mysterious, unsettling film that gets inside your head..." and this picture delivers on that promise.
