Preview: Anamorph (2008)


Poster: C

Review:

The image is too dark, it makes it very difficult for the eyes to process. It appears to be Willem Dafoe's face with a drop of blood forming the "o" in the title, but unless you have some very good lighting, it will be hard to make out entirely.

Trailer: B

Review:

There's something intriguing in this trailer. While it seems like the conventional serial killer prototype, the solving medium is at least intriguing. Dafoe doesn't look like he puts much effort into the film, which suggests it's not a film that focuses much on quality-entire, but mostly on artistic and visual effects.

Oscar Prospects:

I can't see the film making much of an impact on Oscar voters. They are leary of serial killer flicks and there's nothing in the preview that suggests the tech categories will stand up and take notice.

Release Date:

April 18, 2008

Synopsis Review:

I have not seen this film.
