Countless


Jennifer 8 (1992)

Written and directed by Bruce Robinson this thriller stars Andy Garcia, Uma Thurman and Lance Henriksen. A big city cop moves out to the country and becomes obsessed with reopening old cases to hunt a serial killer.

At the time this film was largely seen as unsuccessful at the box office but is pretty much a run of the mill thriller. The plot manages not to get too gimmicky which is often the case in serial killer films from the 90s but otherwise there is not much to help it stand out from a number of similar films. Uma Thurman's performance as a blind girl is probably the best thing in the film but her part is sadly little more than the helpless girl that needs saving.

3/5
