To John_Merritt2011Just the fact that your very first statement tells us you did not even see this film, your critique of this video is nonsensical, uneducated, and flat out stupid! Your assertion that it should not have been made due to the brutality of it and insulting to the victims families, is ridiculous! By your way of thinking movies like: Full Metal Jacket (RIP Gunny), JFK, Goodfellas, Glory, and every other movie based on Actual Events. Gimme a break!

This is a very well paced and realistically made Lifetime movie about the true story of Canadian Air Force colonel Russ Williams. His gradual escalation from underwear theft to home invasion and murder is carefully and realistically portrayed here. Gary Cole gives a balanced and believable performance as the main character. The straightforward telling without flashbacks is good and the tension and fear of the victims is quite terrifying.The police investigation is fascinating with the various mistakes and eventual breakthrough.Looks like there are some crazy serial pervert killers up North too.Worth a watch.

To be frank this movie doesn't really warrant a review so it will be a short one. The target audience for this 'straight to video' production is clearly not those that love quality movies, more likely bored stay at homes looking for some cheap thrills. The scenes involving the main actor and his victims are portrayed in a reveling manner, with the emphasis upon the suffering of the victim in the particular scene which invariably goes on too long. There is barely any character development to speak of. The relationships between characters are pretty much stereotypical - the loyal wife, the sad victim, the evil perpetrator, the honourable / incompetent policemen / women. In summary, avoid this film.

This base commander had it all. Deeply respected by all and a favorite of the Queen, he had some career ahead of him. Go know that he was a sexual predator whose escapades became more and more violent and eventually would lead up to a double murder.Go know that the tires on his car would eventually do him in. What dastardly acts he committed. Dressing up as a woman was part of the act as well.Interesting to see how the case was cracked. You'd think this commander would have been beyond reproach. However, when the evidence started pointing to him, they had no other alternative but to pursue him.
