Summary: Good story, Bad acting
Review: This movie has a very good story. It is really frightening and suspenseful. However, the acting leaves much to be desired. I don't like to say anything negative about Christopher Lambert because I do like him a lot. I think that he did a good job in HIGHLANDER, THE ROAD KILLERS, and THE HUNTED. I also think that he was very good in HIGHLANDER: ENDGAME. But he was not good at all in this movie. He's not alone, though. The performances of the other actors aren't exactly memorable either. Other than the acting, the movie is really good. However, it is very gruesome so if you're the squeamish type it'd be best to avoid this movie.

Summary: Abomination for sale
Review: This movie is for morbidity lovers. I have trouble understanding how someone can make a movie like that. If you are insane and have a twisted mind, this movie is for you (as long as you are kept in a straight jacket). This movie is not even worth any rating; anything as low as you can imagine will still be higher than this film is worth. Definitely a movie to stay away from at any cost.

Summary: Resurrection is equal to Seven
Review: This movie is one of the best, most gursome ones ever. It is a perfect match for Seven, i admit there are some similar things but i think the story is great. The motive is twisted, and the plot is one that has never been thought of before. This is not one for the weak at heart.

Summary: GREAT thriller - a must see!
Review: This movie's plot was well thought out, suspenseful, and thrilling. This movie rates up there with Silence of the Lambs and Seven. Christopher Lambert is wonderful, much improved since the Highlander days.

Summary: Lacks originality ,but has another strong points
Review: With the first movements of this movie you will start to wonder why they made it in the first place ,That's because of the very visible resemblances with some elements of (Se7en) ,The scene where Detective John Prudhomme (Christopher Lambert) and his partner detective heading for the scene of the first crime you can't help but notice the pouring rain falls on and around them ,This makes you remember the same opening scene from (Se7en) where were Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman walking under the rain heading for the crime scene ,This resemblance is more approved when they browse the murder's details ,The same dark witty atmosphere and the same gore of the dead body condition ,After that we get to collect the plot ties together where the mysterious killer is collecting the body parts of his chosen victims ,Detective Prudhomme discovers that the killer is doing this for the wicked purpose of assembling a human body contains various body parts as a sacrifice for Jesus Christ ,And till this point the story seems in the region of the ordinary psychological thrillers ,With the same concepts of (Se7en) trademarks .This is not the end ,In the second half of the movie things start to take a darker curve ,And you start to forget about (Se7en) and indulge yourself in the events ,The movie actually tries to make an unique path for itself with the use of dazzling cinematography which came very effective ,The camera's movements occasionally shudders to give a haunting feeling for the frame you see ,And this is helped by a very good musical score ,The movie has several very shocking moments ,The gore are strong and very graphic ,But the shocking moments doesn't shock you because of their nasty details ,They shock because of their portraying of human suffering and the pain they endure ,It really gives a lurching feeling while watching them . Another thing surprised me which is the casting of Christopher Lambert ,I have never thought about him outside the region of his Highlander's Movies which ofcourse arguably didn't need much of performance skills ,But he really did a good job here in this movie,Although I have found his accent to be irritating at some moments ,I don't know if any other one has felt that but I thought that I need to mention it ,Another good performance from Leland Orser and Robert Joy ,The later excelled but didn't enter the superior category in this sort of roles ,Director Brad Mirman is noticeably skillful in using the tools in his hands but I wished he did more hard job to create more different vision for the Serial Killer's Genre ,Because in the presence of masterpieces like (Se7en) you need to work every cell in your brain if you are the director to be distinguishable ,The Scenario which was written in cooperation between Lambert and Mirman just had a weak finale in comparison to the gripping events that precedes it . Resurrection is a good addition for this genre ,With intelligent twists during the movie ,You are granted to be hooked while watching the two thirds of it ,It may gives your stomach an ache but after it finishes you heart will still be touched and your cinematic senses will be satisfied .

Summary: Up there with Seven
Review: Yeah,you heard me,most people do not like this movie due to it's similarities with Seven,but if you can get past them you will get a great thriller,coming close to be better than Seven,the story?Mutilated bodies have been appearing and Lambert and his partner have to find this crazy guy.There is a subplot involving the death of Lambert's son that causes a tear exchange between him and his wife,even if it doesn't add much it's still good.The acting?Love him or hate him you have to admit Lambert gives a powerful acting,but the rest of the cast is average,it should have been released in the U.S.But it seems people like to see a lot of bad movies(the Bone Collector anyone?)
