>*"Naughty worm."*

Here we are, J.Lo is now a psychotherapist entering the mind of a serial killer in order to save his next victim... such an odd casting choice and honestly I was never sold on her, she wasn't terrible but I still wonder why she's acting at all and what this would be like with a better lead.

I wasn't too sure about this movie at first but once the *Zodiac* storyline and the sci-fi concept meet is when I was sold, for a while. A life is at stake and I was right there along with them to try and save it. The concept is good. Vincent D'Onofrio plays a twisted villain and I wish we saw more of him (without the ridiculous costumes, just normal) because he truly stole the show whenever he was on-screen. The flashback scenes were so brutal.

Where this movie truly excels though is in the visuals, the odd sets and costumes are certainly creative and I think i'll remember them for a while. What i'll remember even more are the twisted visuals, stuff you would see in a *Saw* movie, I looked away in the guts scene. Though I have to say there's some questionnable choices in here... sometimes (especially in the third act) it looks like a drag queen stage play and the acting doesn't help. Wasn't a fan of the third act. The psychedelic effects when they enter the virtual reality are atrocious, it looks like what I can only describe as an animated Froot Loops commercial.
