Synopsis

The film tells the story of a homicide detective named Archer, played by Al Pacino, who joins a young criminologist named Will Ruiney (played by Karl Urban) in the search for a dangerous serial killer whose crimes are inspired by a famous children's game: the hangman. Also in the investigation, a young and attractive journalist, called Christi and played by Brittany Snow, will have an important role in play.

This low budget thriller is the third production directed by Johnny Martin, who is best known for his work as a specialist in risk sequences. The script is written by Michael Caissie and Charles Huttinger, who wrote the series of 'Luke 11:17'. The cast is completed by Joe Anderson and Sarah Shahi.
