2) It is about a group of strangers: a family, a limo driver, an actress, a cop transporting a convict, a newly married couple, and a hooker who all end up stranded at a secluded motel due to a storm and then they get killed one by one. One of the 11 people is the killer but who?

3) There other story revolves a psychiatrist who is trying to prove the innocence of a man accused of murder in an eleventh hour trial. Both these story will create a twist at the end that would leave you astonished

4) The beginning is quite clever where the camera stops at one point and goes to the past to show you what happens.

5) Great performance from the cast John Cusack, Ray Liotta, Amanda Peet - small parts by John McGinley, Jake Busey, Rebecca De Mornay.

6) This movie is a masterpiece If you want to watch a horror, a mystery, a action, and a murder film then see Identity today because it has all of that in it!

It my favorite movie and that why i think it best movies ever made

Hated it.

Twisty for twisty's sake and the reveal nulified any sympathy one could have for any of the "characters." Ham-fisted and trite.
But then again you hated A Clockwork Orange - so I can see we'll never agree on what quality filmmaking is.

See No Evil-not terrible but not spectacular.

Slaughter Hotel

Ghost Keeper. They just re-released it on DVD, and I emailed Netflix asking them to get it (I asked them to get Let's Scare Jessica to Death and they had it three weeks later, so maybe they listen).

Anyhow Ghost Keeper is probably one of the best "lodge horror" B films of all time. That's a pretty specific genre though... IMDB Ghost Keeper for kicks.

Dead and Breakfast, Psycho, Haunted Honeymoon, and The Shining are the ones that first pop in my mind.

Though not a lodge/motel/whatnot, you could toss Night of the Living Dead in there. The reason I say this is because it follows the similar premise of most hotel horror movies. Strangers stranded together facing an unknown evil.

Check out the Masters of Horror "Pick Me Up", a decent bit of it takes place in/around a motel and it's a fun watch. Also, for comedy horror (less horror) Transylvania 6-5000.
