Reviews:

Ripper has got himself a modern-day copycat.
This item might be trapped in its 80s decor (fashion, music), but this stylishly compelling and crisp psychological thriller holds it cards close and leads the way with an appealingly subtle and sincere James Spader performance. This guy has charisma! And he strongly pulls off the whole dual part of playing twins. The premise is one of those, the less you know, the better off you are. When you think you have it figured out, you’ll find yourself at square one again. It’s a simple, but cleverly penned whodunit murder mystery story. Its odd and manipulative multi-layered structure offers unpredictable turns, hidden clues, suspicious red herrings, but in the long run leaves some spotty developments and a real lack of motivation. It might annoy and could’ve used some tweaking, but the well-paced story (that takes time to give our protagonist some depth) and sense of urgency just grips you that you just go with it. Director / writer Rowdy Herrington’s directorial debut shows assurance in his abilities. The thrills are routine, but confidently done with razor-sharp timing and jarring force. They’re menacing, brooding, bloody and a little disturbing. He really does hold you at bay with powerful visuals and anxious suspense. The moody photography and lighting composition drills in well with the stirringly blues music score. This blends well in with eerily glum and sullen atmospheric tinge coming from the Los Angles’ setting. The performances are well-suited. Spader is the film’s main drive, but Cynthia Gibb is capably good and Robert Picardo turns in a sound performance. Its also stars Jim Haynie, Chris Mulkey, Rod Loomis, John Wesley and Rex Ryon in amusingly fine support.

A wonderfully quirky and darkly projected thriller that’s better than your average output.

Avoid wasting any time on this pathetic film. You’re better off watching a Bugs Bunny cartoon.
What a horrendous film, I am amazed at the films high rating. After watching Jack the Ripper (1988 TV) starring Michael Caine, Armand Assante and Jane Seymour, and also From Hell (2001) starring Johnny Depp and Ian Holm, I was expecting more of the same.

Alas, this film disappoints from the start. A poorly executed plot, mediocre acting with shallow characters.

This is James Spader’s worst film to date. He performed much better in Stargate (1994) and The Watcher (2000).

The title refers to a Jack the Ripper copycat, who’s committing similar murders in Los Angeles on the same days on the hundredth anniversary of when the original killings occurred.

Plot: A young doctor John Westford (James Spader) finds himself at the scene of one of the Ripper murders and is eventually killed. His identical twin brother Rick Westford (James Spader) claims to have seen visions of the true killer in a dream. The police think that John had committed the murder and was the copycat. Now Rick has the chance to prove his brother was innocent and the the murderer is someone else…….

In conclusion, not worth wasting 1hr 33mins on this flick. Do something else instead like cleaning your house or going for a walk in the park.
