Summary: What a ripoff
Review: First of all I borrowed the video--no way on earth I'd pay anything for this although it "reads" like it might be interesting. Several points brought up in the IMDB included one particularly on point PULLLEEASE A cop chasing a suspect in a VW Beetle? I am a major fan of Michael Pare. Unfortunately, the more I see of his movies the more I am beginning to believe he is strictly Eddie Wilson from Eddie & The Cruisers. His mannerisms, his way of talking to his wife, his telling a story, ya know what I mean? Even his gestures...all of this has been seen multiple times in other films. As Det. Renaut he is strictly a cardboard character....no more. The only character one can even remotely get a feel for his Renaut's wife. The killer is straight out of American Psycho and there are more than a few references to Silence of the Lambs. I don't really see the relation to Seven, but I'm sure there is one. Sloppy editing, especially in the beginning and a the murderer hanging around in some place so OUT of place for him will certainly arouse suspicion. Right away we are given the murderer and the bumbling way that capture is handled makes it unbelievable. Tied up nicely with a shootout. I am very disappointed in this film and I had hoped that Michael Pare would've developed more character than to star in the same type of role over and over. Very disappointed indeed. DO NOT PASS GO. DO NOT WASTE TIME with this film. Sorry.
