	atob.html
		In 1966, a group of film buffs got together to make their own four-chapter matinee serial and this cliffhanger is probably the best attempt to recapture the by-gone days we've ever seen.
		Filmed in 1929, two versions of this serial are known to exist.
		Filmed and released through the independent National Arrow Film Company, this western serial comes complete, all fifteen chapters, with music score set to the silent era cliffhanger.

	DVD Times - Heimat 2: Chronicle of a Generation
		Heimat 2 is a different serial to Heimat, concentrating on a smaller stretch of time, and a narrower range of people, and it doesn’t quite have the impact of the wartime scenes of the first serial.
		The second “Heimat” (and that’s the title of the present serial: Die Zweite Heimat) is the one you make for yourself as an adult, of the place in the world you establish for yourself, your friends and the family you make.
		You don’t have to have seen the first serial, as all you need to know is set up in the opening fifteen minutes.

	The Silence of the Lambs [1990] - Review @ EOFFTV
		Ressler expressed many reservations about the script as it stood, but suggested that a few very minor adjustments could turn it into a film that would accurately reflect both FBI procedure and the behaviour of serial killers without detracting from the film's value as entertainment.
		It also sparked off a distasteful series of mostly made-for-television dramas supposedly based on the real life doings of serial killers, most of which were sanitised to the point where the very real pain and torment that these people have caused was all but forgotten.
		Accepting for the moment the sheer inanity of the FBI sending a trainee out into the field, interviewing one of the most dangerous and manipulative killers they have in their cells [and doing so alone], the film proceeds well enough until we, the audience, are made privvy to the identity of Buffalo Bill.

	Fighting Kung Fu Video

	Serial Mom (1994)
		"Serial Mom" is a ridiculously charming and clever film that never really received the credit it deserved.
		It is John Waters' best mainstream film, and its tongue-in-cheek portrayal of suburbia, domesticity, the media, and conventional gender roles is delightfully subversive.
		Could this perfect mom be a serial killer?

	ThePulp.Net: The Spider
		Find out about The Spider’s film serial adventures at the Internet Movie Database:
		Tom Powers offers information on the pulp Spider and the serial Spider, plus a personal essay on the character and an original poem “The Web of The Spider.” Look for a lot of good information about the serial.
		His struggles pitted him against foes such as “The Mad Horde,” “The City Destroyer,” “Serpent of Destruction” and “The Devil’s Death Dwarfs.” And, the character of The Spider changed from simply a nickname for detective Wentworth into a shocking, caped and fanged wild man that Wentworth dressed up as.

	The Double Deckers Associated Programmes and Movies
		In 1967 the CFF invited Harry Booth and Roy Simpson and his production company Century Films to make a 7-part serial for called River Rivals about two families who compete in a boat race.
		Other CFF films were also shown including Runaway Railway, A Ghost Of A Chance, Cup Fever and another serial Danny the Dragon.
		Although the children in the cast were usually new to acting, and were chosen from acting schools, more often than not the films featured well-known actors in guest roles who were happy to offer their services for a low fee.

	Dahmer - Reviews
		It says a lot about the sorry state of the indie film scene that a movie as unnerving and powerful as Dahmer - a drama about the life of notorious serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer - had to be financed mostly out of pocket by its director and producer.
		Inspired by Lionel Dahmer's 1994 book A Father's Story, writer-director David Jacobson has created a serial-killer film unlike any I've seen before.
		It’s no skin off my nose, but I’m going to go out on a limb and review a dramatic feature film for the first time in my illustrious career as a critic.

	DVD REVIEW: SERIAL MOM
		"Serial Mom" is the most mainstream film Waters has ever tackled, and he has fun with the conventions.
		How Waters handles this dilemma is just part of the wicked fun of "Serial Mom." I like John waters films because he's audacious.
		Her obsession with serial killers gets a road test when Beverly snaps and starts avenging those who have betrayed her family.

	Saw film review
		The film's title comes from the name the Jigsaw Killer, given to a renowned serial killer for his distinctive methods which are shown in a series of gruesome flashbacks.
		Dealing with the exploits of a particularly macabre serial killer, Saw bears many of the hallmarks of Silence Of The Lambs, to which it compares favourably.
		Saw opens with one of those classic conundrums guaranteed to grip an audience from the start.

	Manhunter: Movie-Source.com Manhunter Movie, Manhunter Preview, Manhunter Review
		Manhunter is a serial killer film and the focus needs to be on the serial killer, not on the mind of the FBI Agent.
		The film drags on forever and ever without much plot development, and when there are what should be good scenes, there is nothing but more crap.
		Unfortunately, we see the Tooth Fairy very little throughout the film, and near the end, when he does get a lot of screen time, he is for some reason falling in love with a blind girl (Joan Allen).

	Film Scouts Reviews: Hannibal
		The final confrontation (slightly altered from the book to lure Foster to the film) feels like a farce after waiting so long for a battle of wills with Clarice, the lady agent who refuses to believe she shares anything in common with a serial killer.
		In truth, it was the eerily serene persona of Dr. Hannibal, the serial killer with style, who had hypnotized audiences and catapulted Hopkins from character actor to movie star.
		Most of this far-fetched movie devotes itself to Pazzi's drawn-out, plodding pursuit of Hannibal, which seems a mistake, since the special relationship between Clarice and the cultivated cannibal is what captivated audiences.

	Horrordvds.com Forum - William Friedkin's RAMPAGE
		However, this film still stands on its own as a gritty, disturbing commentary on both the twisted mind of a serial killer and the corrupt legal system that nurtures it.
		This little-seen thriller should be especially refreshing for horror buffs who have grown tired of seeing serial killers depicted as all-knowing, super-intelligent masterminds, and instead reminds us of how easily such killers manage to work their way into working-class society by hiding behind a seemingly innocent veil.
		I did read that, in the process of restructuring the film in 1992, Friedkin actually went back and shot a few new expositional scenes as well.

	Film&Chips - le Critiche
		Hoblit al cinema non é mai riuscito a fare niente di eccezionale ("Schegge di paura", "Il tocco del male") ma é stato regista di serial come "Hill Street giorno e notte"(omaggiato nel film) e "NYPO", gli piace lavorare sui personaggi, con la macchina da presa ad altezza d'uomo.
		Influendo sul presente, giocano a rincorrere un ex serial killer e il film passa dal fantasy al thriller, banalizzandosi.
		Frequency non è il tipo di film che ti coinvolge sul piano razionale, ma su quello emotivo.

	ArtsJournal: About Last Night
		On the other hand, full-time film reviewers (of which I'm not one) rarely have sufficient time to do the research that would allow them to intelligently compare film adaptations to their sources.
		Sorry not to have posted anything today, but I'm run ragged and seriously underslept, and it's been all I could do simply to drag myself from point A to point F. Friday isn't likely to be much different, but I'll do my best to show my face.
		Looking back on this passage, it now strikes me as more than a little bit irresponsible for me to have made such a wild guess instead of reading the book.

	DVD Empire - Item - Serial Mom / DVD-Video
		The film manages to strike upon the medias fascination with serial killers, horror films and their influence and the horrible, horrible thing called being a housewife.
		SERIAL MOM strikes sarcastically at so many clichés, it becomes hard to keep track of them all.
		Beverly is the perfect mother to her dentist husband (Sam Waterston), her over-sexed daughter Misty (Ricki Lake) and her horror film junkie son, Chip (Matthew Lillard.) She cooks their me

	DVD Empire - Item - Ed Gein / DVD-Video
		Ed's patterns as a serial killer of women were emulated in the 1990 film "Silence of the Lambs" and in the 1960 film "Psycho" to some extent.
		This film is a semi-biographical portrayal of Ed Gein, a quiet and unassuming man that was secretly sick and highly disturbed.
		Wisconsin is not exactly a place I'd take the kids on vacation, but the Beaver State is famous for a few things: cows, cheese, the Brewers, the Packers, and Ed Gein; Wisconsin's greatest contribution to serial killer lore.

	2001-The Year in Horror
		What these films have in common are structures of astonishing originality that manage to breathe new life into that most hidebound of horror subgeneras, the serial killer movie.
		Brotherhood of the Wolf in the way it slavishly adheres to tried-and-true Hollywood formulas·but, like that film, itâs such an impressively rendered piece of work that I was more than able to enjoy
		What emerges is a far from great film, but still the best of the three, forsaking the kid movie pretentions of the others to proudly wear its B-movie pedigree on its sleeve.

	What A Character!
		It was in Zurich, Switzerland that he made his stage debut, and after film roles in German films such as Mann ist Mann and Die Verschwundene Frau, Lorre landed the role of psychotic serial killer “Hans Beckert” in Fritz Lang’s landmark 1931 film M.
		When the economy was devastated by the 1919 Hungarian Communist revolution, his family settled in Vienna where Lorre briefly worked as a bank clerk before beginning his theatrical training.
		During the Nazi’s rise to power in the 1930s, Lorre traveled to Paris, London and finally Hollywood.

	Serial - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Serials were especially popular with children, and for many youths in the first half of the 20th century, a typical Saturday at the movies included a chapter of at least one serial, along with cartoons, newsreels, and two feature films.
		As the serials were bought sight-unseen by the lesser theaters for an audience of children, their product often had the worst acting and scripts, the least capable direction, and the most monotonous music ever screened: worse than any film that got reviewed in print.
		Many films created using machinima, the art of using pre-existing consumer-level three-dimensional rendering engines to create computer-generated imagery, have been distributed in serial format.

	Adventure Films
		Adventure films are very similar to the action film genre, in that they are designed to provide an action-filled, energetic experience for the film viewer.
		The film was remade in 1952 by director George Sidney - Scaramouche (1952), with Stewart Granger and Mel Ferrer in the lead roles - well-reknowned for a six-minute fencing duel.
		Adventure films, in a broader context, could include boxing movies, motor racing films, and films adapted from literary novels (i.e., King Solomon's Mines (1937 and 1950), The Thief of Bagdad (1924 and 1940), The Three Musketeers (1916, 1921, 1933, 1935, 1948, 1973, and 1993), and The Prisoner of Zenda (1937, 1952)).

	The Silence of the Lambs Movie Review
		For the benefit of those who are not familiar with the novel by Thomas Harris on which the film is based, the plot centers around the search for a serial killer called Buffalo Bill who has been leaving a trail of partially flayed women's bodies.
		Part of the fascination of serial killers is learning what the private fantasy is that makes them do what they do, in the particular way they do it; we don't get to see very much of Jame Gumb's world, although the glimpses we get are tantalizing and spooky.
		The FBI Behavioral Science Unit is on the case, and is hoping to enlist the aid of another serial killer currently in custody, the brilliant psychiatrist Hannibal Lecter (the old "Set a thief to catch a thief" tactic).
