Some fresh pics of Michael Winterbottom’s latest have hit the web, and they got “extra pulp” written all over them. Unless its a politically-driven doc or drama, the filmmaker on a film per year pace rarely revisits the same film genre twice, and judging by the pics, noirish crime tale. Wih her rouge lips, Alba comes across as familiar, but Hudson dropping her blonde for brown is a nice, surprise touch. The Killer Inside Me should be ready in time for the Berlin Film Festival next year, in the mean time you can grab an eyeful below or see the full set of six over here.
Written by Robert Weinbach and John Curran and based on Jim Thompson’s novel, the story follows a West Texas sheriff (Affleck) and his downward spiral from a boring small-town cop into a ruthless, sociopathic murderer. Lou has a bunch of problems. Woman problems. Law enforcement problems. An ever-growing pile of murder victims in his West Texas jurisdiction. And the fact he’s a sadist, a psychopath, a killer. Suspicion begins to fall on Lou, and it’s only a matter of time before he runs out of alibis. Alba plays a prostitute.
