Day 6- The Killer Inside Me (2010)

Some old favorites, some new unknowns... we're watching 100 movies in 31 days!


THE KILLER INSIDE ME
Sub-Genre- Serial Killer

Cast Members of Note- Casey Affleck, Jessica Alba, Kate Hudson, Elias Koteas, Simon Baker, Ned Beatty and Bill Pullman.

What's it About?- Lou is a polite, friendly, small town Sheriff's deputy in West Bumfuck, Texas. His hobbies include rape, raping young girls, beating hookers to death, maiming kittens, earning the trust and friendship of young boys and then getting them to kill them selves, karate boxing with homeless vagrants, and murder of all types and forms. He's also real handy with a lame saying or unwanted platitude or two. He always has something to say.

A consummate ladies man... which says a lot about the ladies.

Bored with his hot blond girlfriend, Lou starts pickle wrangling with a hot brunette hooker, who likes to be knocked around and buggered. Unfortunately for her, Lou just wants to use her to get revenge on the local rich guy, so he kills her and the rich guys son, hoping to get away with the blackmail money that he and the hooker were originally demanding from the rich guys son. I don't know, it's complicated.

"I'm so gonna fuckin' kill you... now wrangle my pickle!"

Soon enough Lou's sick little world begins to spin out of control and he's forced to kill more people to cover his crimes. As people grow suspicious around him, the once thought dead hooker is revealed to be alive and in a coma, which means that the jig is about to be up for Lou. Had he not double crossed her to begin with, everything would be alright and he'd be all up in some sexy hooker booty rather than be on the verge of destruction. Then again, (thick Texas accent) "you caint never trust no whore..."

Too bad you're a whore. Whores never win. Unless you're Julia Roberts I suppose...

Will the hooker wake up and reveal Lou for what he is? Will Lou ever bang a chick that he doesn't feel compelled to kill? Will we ever find out why Bill Pullman just randomly showed up at the end of the movie? Who cares, just show us more of Jessica Alba naked please.

Not Jessica Alba, but the creepy chick who molested Lou when he was a kid. She has a notable ass though, no?

The Good- If you like slower more atmospheric movies that still manage to disturb the hell out of you, then this is a movie for you. Casey Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms The Killer Inside Me, giving us an eerily realistic portrayal of a sick, calculated sociopath, and letting us see what makes him tick. What makes him tick makes for some very brutal actions and uncomfortable scenes to sit through, that might just make you wince a bit.

I don't want to say the movie is slow, but it definitely has a slower, more deliberate pace, and it takes its time getting where it needs to go. Alright, it's slow. It is really good though, so we can forgive that little sin can't we?

The Bad- ***SPOILERS*** Why would you kill someone as hot as Jessica Alba rather than letting her live to be your kinky little sex toy? The girl is down for whatever, and were talking anything from hot backdoor action to being slapped around during dirty role-play -and she's phenomenally beautiful on top of that- so why kill her? I get why you did it, but I'm just saying, you're a moron.

The Downright Horrendous-
***SPOILERS*** I understand that sociopaths are usually empty voids of emotion, cold and uncaring, and tend to have contempt for most people around them, but why kill your fiance (talking about Kate Hudson this time)? She knows you're creepy and up to no good, and she doesn't care because she loves you... and you kill her? That's a bottom bitch if I've ever seen one, and you don't go wasting a good, loyal bottom bitch like that.

The Gory- There are some truly intense scenes in this movie, and by intense we mean crazy violent. This isn't a movie that gets gratuitous with the blood, but it gets it right when it counts, and will disturb those viewers who cant handle the intense stuff.

The Naked- Jessica Alba and Kate Hudson are both looking good in this, and have a lot of naked, sweaty sex. Alba still has the annoying habit of covering up for the most part though. Prude. Still, it's all sexy good.

Best Line- "Nobody has it comin'. That's why nobody can see it comin'." or "I love you. Goodbye."

What did we learn?
- Never trust the police. Also, you can make a ho a housewife, but only if you refrain from killing her.

The Master Says- A (9.5/10) The Killer Inside Me is one hell of a movie. It's stark and disturbing, and stays with you long after you finish experiencing it for the first time. Casey Affleck gives us a haunting look into the mind of a true sociopath, which left us feeling a bit dirty and used after watching this movie. A great movie, check it out on DVD asap, or on IFC in demand if it's still available.

Final Thoughts-
Jessica Alba is even hotter now that we know she has a kinky side...


That's 14/100 movies watched so far, so we had better get back to it... now onto the movie with the killer fish...
