OJT I was looking forward to an above average film when I sat down to watch this. Sean Young and perhaps C. Thomas Howell was to assure that. So I'm writing this to warn off anyone which will think the same as me - thinking this is worthwhile to watch.But I could immediately see that the good idea in this film, and what could have been a good plot, was ruined by bad directing and bad acting.This could have made an interesting film in the hands of a better director. The script is far from flawless, but still I think it could have been saved. But all the actors show that they don't believe in the project. Even the little kid is really bad. There's not a single actor acting worth watching here. Sean Young is theatrical, C. Thomas Howell is stoic, and the police looks like they have been taken in from the streets. Unbelievably enough, even the extras here are bad. Like the woman in the neighboring table at the restaurant! I haven't seen anything like it!It's a shame money has been spent on this, but I give it a 2 out of 10 for the idea. Such a pity good ideas can be spent this way!If this is American independent film-making, let me see any film any day before this!
adiliki_adiliki_adiliki Hmmm... such a powerful name for a low low budget movie which was totally beyond my expectations. The beginning is somehow compromising and interesting, but as the movie runs the joy fastly diminishes. I must reckon that there is actually one sole fact which increases the grade of this film: the big twist present in the end.

Not recommended.
Vivek Bisht I liked the plot. Kept me guessing till the end but the acting was shoddy and the direction was pretty lousy. Intitally i guessed the killer but then the twists in the movie took me farther n farther away from the truth. A lot of twists in the story which actually kept me sitting in front of the TV to watch the entire movie.The end was such a waste to the whole plot. It could have been filmed really well and would have made watching the whole movie worthwhileThe director could have done a much better job with the movie.A movie i could watch once if i had nothing better to do.
BMLB A Killer Within is a pretty good murder mystery story. It's an indie flick, so don't expect another Silence of the Lambs, but overall it's pretty solid. It has an easy to follow plot with some original twists, and a good ensemble cast. The film stars C. Thomas Howell, Sean Young, Ben Browder and Giancarlo Esposito. The story line is that Addison Terrill (Howell), a high-priced lawyer, comes home one night to find his wife Becky (Young) murdered in the bedroom and his young son beaten and unconscious at the hospital. The police automatically assume that Addison is the culprit, so it's up to him to clear his own name.The movie does a good job of keeping the audience guessing and second-guessing who the killer is until the end.
