If the director wasn't so camera crazy, maybe this movie would have been good. There was an interesting idea to it, and the story had so much behind it, but the outcome was terrible. The amount of unneeded garbage just brought the movie down completely. I wound up fast forwarding through half of it, and realizing that in the end, none of that stuff mattered anyway. Maybe if the family they based it on was real, or went into more about the killer himself it would have made for a better film. I learned from and found the stuff online more interesting than the movie. Waste of my money, and time.It seems like a great plot, and great story but knowing about their Italian life, and the parents having sex didn't interest me. The 10 minute dance sequence was also very unneeded.
