Cindy Sherman is a respected and celebrated artist specializing in self-portraits, earning a reputation for strange, evocative work, with labor mostly provided by herself. Sherman advances to the world of filmmaking in 1997’s “Office Killer,” and the experience must’ve been something, as she’s never made another movie since. It’s a shame, as the helmer clearly has an eye for the artform, working to make this examination of an insane person trying to bring balance to her life through murder as visually interesting as an extremely low budget will allow. Of course, storytelling struggles are found through the offering, with Sherman eventually losing control of the endeavor, but “Office Killer” has unusual atmosphere and sharp performances, giving it a little boost of appeal when dramatics start to sputter out.
