3/10
Not much of anything here.

I think people are being overly kind to this movie because it's shot relatively competently but there's pretty much no real story going on to the point I don't know if you can really call it a "movie". Once you take out the time the opening and closing credits take up this movie is only about an hour long, and most of that is filled with Artik mumbling and bumbling about and extremely boring and poorly acted scenes that occur in the nearby town. There's only two real scenes of violence/gore to show that he's a serial killer and they're pretty tame, and I watched the supposed uncut version which means the normal version must have somehow been even shorter and tamer.

It's nonsense and even with such a short run time was pretty boring and uneventful. I read other reviews about how the ending sequence was action packed and full of gore...no it's not. This is a nothing movie where no one shows any acting skills, the script is non-existent, and while I didn't hate it or anything I simply didn't care once it ended. Pretty pointless ultimately.
