Product Description

Willem Dafoe (Spider Man, Platoon) is a detective drawn into a gruesome case in this intense psychological thriller. Haunted by the killings, he soon finds himself confronting his own deadly past. With each slaying, the investigation takes a different, darker turn. And the nearer he is drawn to the murders, the closer he could become the ultimate victim or take the fall for the crimes. Also starring Scott Speedman (The Strangers) and Clea Duvall (Heroes).

Synopsis

Willem Dafoe (THE ENGLISH PATIENT) plays an NYPD detective who grapples with a string of unusual serial murders, perpetrated by a killer who fashions himself an artist. As the detective investigates the brilliantly composed crime scenes, he draws closer to a mystery that may end up implicating himself. H.S. Miller wrote and directed this moody psychological thriller.

2.0 out of 5 stars Art attack ., 21 Sep 2009

By	russell clarke "stipesdoppleganger" (halifax, west yorks) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)

Sounding , with that title , like a sci-fi monster Alien [DVD] [1979] rip off ,Anamorph is actually a relentlessly dour psychological thriller based on a series of murders where the perpetrator uses a technique based on the concept of anamorphosis, a painting skill that manipulates the laws of perspective to create two competing images on a single canvas. The paintings are actually the most interesting part of the film which is bad news for a thriller some would say.
Willem Defoe , sporting a ludicrous cow pat haircut plays Stan Aubrey a NYPD detective so serious and downbeat he makes Inspector Morse look like Inspector Gadget .Aubrey
remains haunted by the crimes of a nut job killer who had terrorized the city, crafting his murder scenes as gruesome tableaux, before apparently being killed by Stan. Five years later, the detective is called in to investigate what at first seems to be a series of copycat crimes. But are they copycat crimes and is the killer using Stan , as the inspiration for his grisly masterpieces?
It must be said if that is the case then he is the most dull serial killer in crime fiction. The trouble with having a lead character as po-faced as Stan Aubrey is the film tends to get dragged into the same prosaic world view. Writer/director Henry Miller ( he co-wrote the screenplay with Tom Phelan ) seems to have attempted to make a more considered studied and cerebral version of David Finchers Seven [DVD] but the film lacks any of that films dynamism or pace even it does share its love of indistinct sets and doomy shadow haunted set pieces.
Fair play to the writers for coming up with a new angle on the nearly done to death serial killer thing but the whole premise feels faintly ridiculous and the whole tone of the film is so unremittingly sombre it tips over into unceasing dullness. The way the admittedly creative murders are presented as works of art also removes any hint of danger or terror or threat from the whole montage.
So then we have a detective with a charisma bypass hunting an art inspired killer who is more interested in presenting his slaughter as works of art than anything else. Might have sounded good conceptually but boy it makes boring cinema. All things considered I'd have preferred the rampaging xenomorph .

1.0 out of 5 stars Actually Awful!, 9 Aug 2009

By	Mrs J E Robbins "wackyjackiedogs" (cornwall) - See all my reviews

As a fan of Willem Dafoe, i didnt think twice about watching this film, but i was bitterly dissapointed.
Firstly, there was no real story or plot behind the film.
Secondly, there was nothing to keep the audience glued to the seat, it was bland and it was terribly boring.
If i was able to give less than half a star i would, as i honeslty think this is one of the worst films i have ever watched, and i do love watching a good movie with the family!
Dont watch, you will be dissapointed :)

4.0 out of 5 stars Well worth watching!!, 23 Feb 2009

By	C. Pendrey "kecapen2" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Wasn't sure what to expect from this film as I couldn't find any reviews on the net....but was pleasantly surprised!

If you like "Seven", you will love this, I won't say anything about the plot as it will spoil it!!

Give it a go, you won't be disappointed
