SCREEN: The Killer Inside Me

First posted about here, The Killer Inside Me is back in NYC and showing @ The IFC Center until July 1.

Adapting pulp master Jim Thompson’s novel, Winterbottom turns his masterful hand to neo-noir with the story of handsome, charming, unassuming West Texas deputy Lou Ford (a stunning Casey Affleck). Lou has a bunch of problems. Woman problems. Law enforcement problems. An ever-growing pile of murder victims—and the secret that he’s a sadist, a psychopath and a killer. Suspicion begins to fall on Lou, and it’s only a matter of time before his alibis start to unravel. But in this savage, bleak, blacker-than-noir universe nothing is ever what it seems. With Kate Hudson, Jessica Alba, Bill Pullman, Elias Koteas and Ned Beatty. (source)
