Blu-ray Review – Video Murders

"Video Murders" is an ominous title for a movie that's not exactly threatening. It's sold as a slasher, highlighting the menace of an unstable man as he develops into a serial killer, and one who enjoys filming his ghastly acts of violence. However, the actual picture is more of a psychological drama with some periodic supercop action, with director Jim McCullough Sr. ("Mountaintop Motel Massacre") trying to make his feature more meaningful than just another cheap horror endeavor. And there is a little more to the effort than simple bloodshed, but restraint doesn't equate pace, as there's little forward momentum to "Video Murders," which fails to come up with enough incident to fill the run time.
