Amazon.co.uk Review
Sanctimony is a slick thriller from German director Uwe Boll in which
Seven meets
American Psycho. Caspar Van Dien plays Tom Gerrick, a phenomenally successful city trader who leads a double life. By day, he buys and sells stocks; by night he indulges a passion for perverted prurience, visiting the basement of a nightclub to watch the enactment of torture snuff scenarios. Meanwhile hard-ass cop Jim Renart (
Streets Of Fire's Michael Pare) and his cynical, Scully-like partner Dorothy (Jennifer Rubin) sift city filth on the trail of a serial killer dubbed the "Monkey Maker" for his predilection, mutilating the eyes, ears and mouths of his victims. Given its similarity to the aforementioned films,
Sanctimony's plot twists are all too predictable but nevertheless enjoyable as Boll cranks up the audience's appetite for sick thrills. After finding out that Renart's wife (played by Catherine Oxenberg) is heavily pregnant it's evident that something exceedingly nasty is planned for her several plot points down the line. But it's Van Dien's tight-lipped yuppie psycho that steals the show, throwing the whole shebang into high camp.
On the DVD: The DVD features beautifully designed animated menus but extras are limited to a theatrical trailer and cast and crew filmographies. The main feature is a crystal-clear transfer presented in letterboxed widescreen format with Dolby 5.1 sound. --Chris Campion
