The film follows Joseph (George Foster), who is haunted by a past he can't fully comprehend. His shattered memory and the visions in his head turn Joseph to murder and nightly searches for victims. Attempting to understand his rage, he studies criminology, but his psychotic rampage remains unable to be controlled. The killer becomes a victim, however, when he is stalked by Ana, a mentally stunted woman who seeks to make a connection with Joseph. As the audience begins to understand the psychoses of the protagonists, the pair develop a loving relationship in this horrifying, yet tender feature. Shot by BLAIR WITCH PROJECT cinematographer Neal Fredericks. [More]

  • Compelled by homicidal visions, Joseph searches the night for more victims. By day he studies criminology to understand the jagged shards of memory and disturbing compulsions that haunt him. Anna, childlike and lonely, stalks Joseph hoping to make a connection. Together they enter a world of nightmare and murder, of love and redemption in arguably the most compelling horror film to hit the indie scene in recent years. Critically acclaimed, and compared to Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer and Clean, Shaven, KILLER ME portrays in chilling detail the horrific psychosis of a deranged man.

    Its premise and execution are reserved for art film students and people who enjoy serial killer flicks.

    You've gotta love it when a movie about a pyscho killer actually leaves you feeling some sympathy for the bad guy.

    It's a remarkable portrait of a man breaking down and fighting for human dignity, and is filmed without any gimmicks or unnecessary distractions.

    “Killer Me” and “Henry” are similar in that they both allow us to follow around a homicidal maniac in a very cold and cruel world.

    One part Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, one part Clean, Shaven, Zach Hansen's Killer Me is one of the more interesting indie films in recent memory.
