Disappointing mess of a thriller - Fairy Tale Killer review by Alphaville
Disjointed plot, mad laughing killer, pedestrian police investigation, lead cop with a troubled home life, risible climax… all add up to a right old mess. There may be a good serial killer thriller lurking in here somewhere, but it never sees the light of day. Not the best work of normally reliable director Danny Pang (The Eye, Bangkok Dangerous).
