actually many serial killer movies (like Se7en) hold another problem for me ..
they are so bloody intricate and methodical that there is no way these crimes could have been pulled off ..
its always some genius surgeon with impecable timing .. clues deliberately left at one crime scene lead to another .. a cat and mouse game with the cops ..
everything has to go like clockwork or none of it works ...
i know why they do it .. at first its kind of fun and it seems clever .. but after a while i just start to roll my eyes and get bored.
also, like many non-supernatural slasher films .. the villian is always the guy you would never suspect .. the best friend, the mentor-figure .. etc ..
it's another tired worn formula that drives me insane ..
