Renny Harlin directs Kathryn Morris, LL Cool J and Jonny Lee Miller in this serial killer thriller where a flamboyant murderer picks off a group of FBI profilers on a deserted island.

Also featuring Christian Slater and Val Kilmer. But they don’t last past the first act. And their billing on the posters spoils that long before I ever could. Identity meet Saw. Not very good but unhinged enough that you can’t turn it off. 2004 had an aesthetic and it is this. Glacial, shiny, cruel and harsh.
