Trivia:
Uncredited producer Tom Cruise was impressed with Carrie-Anne Moss for this film that he wanted her in his next film Mission: Impossible III (2006) but due to schedule delays, she had to leave the project. more
Goofs:
Factual errors: About 40 minutes into the film, Special Agent Mackelway is pointing to a wall on which are many newspaper clippings, etc. Also on the wall is the F.B.I. shield, which is completely incorrect. There are only 9 stars on the shield rather than 13 stars as on the actual shield, the red and white stripes are diagonal rather than vertical, and the motto underneath the shield reads "Fidelity Bravery Justice", rather than the actual motto of "Fidelity Bravery Integrity". more
Quotes:
Thomas Mackelway: Where's the boy?
Benjamin O'Ryan: The boy is in pieces under the bed.

Good mystery... for patient viewers, 15 April 2007
7/10
Author: BroadswordCallinDannyBoy from Boston, MA

After a series of grisly murders FBI Agent Mackelway suspects that they are linked. And that the killer may actually be after another serial killer who may or may not really exist. Naturally, his colleagues think that he is nuts, but that doesn't stop him from investigating.

This movie is a perfect example of flawed masterpiece. The plot is very interesting. The plot twists are surprising. The performances are good. The film's originality good enough to enjoy and the suspense is great. However, despite this there is still something missing. Something so critical that even though the film shines in many respects by the end you feel like you could have gotten so much more. That missing element would have to be part pace and part presentation. The film starts very slowly, but picks up once more clues are revealed by Mackelway. Though this is at least halfway through the movie. Then the presentation is a bit weird. It makes the film standout from others, but it also makes it confusing in parts, namely the beginning. Then by the time it is finished you feel more like you have just watched a good X-Files episode.

Overall it is a good mystery for patient audiences. --- 7/10

Rated R for grim violence
