Picture
Night Hunter. (15.) 
 
Directed by David Raymond.


Starring Henry Cavill, Ben Kingsley, Alexandra Daddario, Stanley Tucci, Brendan Fletcher and Nathan Fillion. 97 mins


It begins with a half dressed girl running through snowy woods at night, trying to escape some unseen pursuer. As it's the first scene of the movie we know she isn't going to make it. So far, so mundanely salacious, but the remainder of the film is both a little bit more and little bit less than your standard cops track sex killer plot.


Always in these films you have the scene where the cops search a crime scene looking for clues to allow them to draw up a picture of what happened there. Viewers of the remnants of the film once known as Nomis will be attempting something similar. There are lots of potential interesting ideas and characters but at the current running length – and you have to assume that this has been cut down from something much longer – there are only a few insubstantial leads for audiences to work with as they try to work out what it was that attracted such a strong cast to this subject. It also has so many plot holes and untied leads to be borderline incoherent.
