Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe villain has a lot of similarities to real-life NYC serial killer David Berkowitz (also known as the "Son of Sam" and dubbed the ".44 Caliber Killer" by the media). Like the Son of Sam, the killer in this film is referred to as the ".44 Magnum Killer" by the media, commits his crimes in New York City, appears to hear voices (as the Son of Sam once said he did), and taunts the police.
- GoofsMegan's suspension hinges on the fact that the robber's gun wasn't found and the main witness, the cashier, provides an unclear statement even though the gun is right in his face. But at least two other people - the old woman in line after him and another male customer were up close during and after the confrontation.
- Quotes
Eugene Hunt: Death is the best kick of all. That's why they save it for last.
Featured review
a total disaster
Ron silver acted so bad. the script is so bad. in the store scene, she does not call for back up when she sees what was happeneing. and later ron silver takes away the gun, okay thats a bit surprising because there had been no introduction to his character until then, and funny jamie does not bother to stay behind and do the policework, thats okay because she is apparently too shocked and takes leave. later the chief accuses her of shooting ron silver too many times and also going to the extent of accusing her of shooting an unarmed man. now how about the people in the store, surely someone did see him, how about the security camera, how about the people in the streets, well nobody seems to have seen this guy hold the gun. Very poor film by any standards. Later silver shoots jamie's friend while holding jamie's neck with his arms, and she later says she did not see his face... what a stupid story.
