First Promo Reel for "The Killer Inside Me"
The Killer Inside Me loves a good Noir fix.
Casey Afflecks stars as The Killer Inside Me
It’s Sundance Film Festival time again and this year’s roster is certainly not starved for quality of feature films or documentaries. As happens annually John Doe is cursing the celluloid deities for not being able to attend the event in person….maybe next year.
is that the scent of doom?
The original Killer Inside Me Novel
“The Killer Inside Me tells the story of handsome, charming, unassuming small-town deputy sheriff Lou Ford, who has a bunch of problems. Women problems. Law-enforcement problems. And an ever-growing pile of murder victims in his west Texas jurisdiction. All the while Lou manages to remain his stoic self. However, as evidence is discovered over the course of the investigation, suspicion begins to fall on Lou. But in this savage and bleak universe, nothing is ever what it seems… This violent, stylish psychosexual thriller is imbued with all the amoral energy of its genre and is sure to shock some and dazzle all.”
Never restricting his artistic expression to a single genre, over the course of his career Michael Winterbottom has quietly sculpted a diverse and insightful filmography that includes JDM favourites like 24 Hour Party People, Road to Guantanamo and 9 Songs. Consistently rewarding, his unfiltered realism is sure to be part of the raw emotional reaction audiences had to this week’s premiere screening . (Specifically a scene involving the Jessica Alba's damaged goods character being repeatedly smashed by Casey Affleck provoked a minor audience evacuation.)
Casey Afflecks on a road to villiany.
The versatile Bill Pullman (Lost Highway, Zero Effect) and Elias Koteas (Zodiac, The Thin Red line) add extra attraction. The inclusion of Ned Beatty (Deliverance, Superman: The Movie) doesn’t go unnoticed either.
Jessica Alba lets it loose.
Set in the 50's and driven by a cool rockabilly beat, if your not already as excited about this as Johnny D then take a close look at composition and content of the images above. Still not convinced then cruise over to joblo.com and read their review for a more indepth taster..

I put that warning on the clip because the spoilers were all the way through...I admit i stopped it to after a while because it was revealing to much for me too.
Question is, are you interested in seeing the film?
