ariesgirl-42755 bad camera work. bad acting. bad set design. bad costumes. bad soundtrack. Terrible editing. and most of all, THE WORST plot. this movie does not represent the BTK events and the splicing of scenes and quick cuts to random animal slaughter makes no sense. it looks like it was put together by high school kids for a project with their parents and older relatives acting in it as a favor. a rating of 1 was too high for this movie and I was there was another option. I have NEVER stopped a movie because it was so bad until this one. it's level of crap was just too overwhelmingly aggravating.
kelly_james30 I actually signed up just so I could write a review. I wish I would've read these reviews before I wasted my money and time, I actually watched the entire thing, I agree this was a horrible movie, i just bought it used for 3.99 and I spent way too much money. I don't know if the cameraman could have gotten any closer to people's faces and obviously the cameraman had entirely too much coffee. with movies like this I now know I could make a name for myself in the film industry. this movie gives low budget films a bad name. wow I have to keep writing in order for me to submit this I'm not sure if there's anything else to say.horrible is all I wanted to write.
A A Very cheaply made. It was so awful, I couldn't bear to watch more than 10 minutes. Anyone who made it past 5 or so minutes has a lot of determination and maybe patience hoping for it to turn around and somehow get better. Acting and film quality was so poor, it's truly unbearable. Sounds like they did what they could, saw the pitiful results, and still hoped to get a quick buck turnaround on this monstrosity. The film looked like worse than a cheap porno homemade flick, possibly overstock film never used from a couple decades ago, im not sure though. The type of film you use for a basic 50 buck video camera at best buy.
trashvid I'll admit that this is the first time I've signed up for an account anywhere just to post my thoughts on something but the film BTK Killer was just so godawfully horrid that I felt that this may be the only way to try and get this out of my system.That said, I don't care if anyone, anywhere, ever should read my comments on this film as I'm simply writing these few words as a form of catharsis and self-healing after having sat through the BTK Killer two nights ago.The film itself is worthy of absolutely no reflection or analysis. No thought went into making the film whatsoever and as such even less thought will go into my comments. I will mention that my favorite film genres are horror/cult/shock/exploitation/sleaze/giallo - typically categories where viewers tend to be a bit more forgiving as a result of the often thematically outlandish content presented to us in so many films which fall under these genres. Well, BTK Killer is an absolute exception and made me realize that there are some films which truly have absolutely no value whatsoever.I was void after sitting through BTK - nothing made an impression on me, I've seen plenty of slaughterhouse footage in other films (used in a more relevant context so the impact was not lost on viewers) so that was a total loss there - it didn't shock me - yes it was repulsive at times but so is an unflushed toilet. Zero production values, a transparent and for the most part unlikeable cast of characters, and stock slaughterhouse footage - that's all BTK amounts too. Shame is, when the slaughterhouse footage is the best part of the film (at least it was authentic and not shot by someone playing with Daddy's hi-def digicam) it's maybe time as a filmmaker (and I use that term very loosely) to consider other sources of income - talking about you Uli Lomell. This film completely lacks any artistic vision whatsoever and the fact that LionsGate picked this up and tacked their name on it is utterly shameful.Man, I just spent like 15 minutes typing this up and although not completely coherent (but much more so than the film it discusses), I have to admit I do feel a bit better getting this off my chest for now. I can handle bad films and often enjoy them for that sole reason alone (cheese and camp are often something to be applauded) but BTK sinks so far beneath the 'so bad it's good' ideology relegating itself as nothing more than the absolutely worthless POS that it is.The only distinction I can make between this film and the hundreds of other horror and cult DVDs I've bought over the years is that this is truly the worst film in my entire collection bar none.
