The Killer (1989)
Apr 18th, 2010 by cm1

A man is made insane by medical experiments and begins a murder and cannibalism spree.
It was apparently shot using a regular home movie Super 8mm (film, not video) camera back in the late 80s, in just a few days and for a very, very low budget. I understand it had a video release, but was never able to find it in the stores. I eventually caught the movie on Cinemax or Showtime several years ago, and thought it was pretty good for what it was – a slasher film. The acting by some of the secondary characters is pretty lame, but there aren’t too many slasher movies that are examples of great acting, anyway. Overall, I thought Tony Elwood’s direction and Mark Kimray’s screenplay were very good, and the actor that plays the killer, Duke Ernsberger, is really good and quite believable. I also saw another Elwood/Kimray collaboration “Road Kill USA” on video a while back, and thought it was even better, much slicker and with better acting. My only real complaints about “Killer” are the poor sound quality, and somewhat washed-out color in spots, probably due to the Super 8mm film stock.
