Evoking the grit of 1940s noir, director Kyle Dean Jackson makes astonishingly good use of a low budget in this puzzle of a murder mystery. At the center is Detective Kevin Harrison (Michael Madsen, SIN CITY), a weathered cop on his way out; he is training his replacement when a string of brutal murders takes over his attention. At first, the crimes seem random, but Polaroids found at the crime scenes link them together and also connect somehow to the skeletons in Harrison's closet. Shannyn Sossamon (THE ORDER) co-stars as the daughter of a cop whose death is also tied to the current spate of murders.
