No! This film is NOT bad. Might not be THAT good as well, but it wasn't bad at all. Jeremy Renners performance can truly be described as wonderful and touching. I also really liked the storytelling. It's far far away from anything a horror fan would expect, but I liked that it's very calm and slow. The directing was pretty good. For example that scene when Jeffrey's in that gay club and takes all those men to their room and has sex with them is really well shot.
Though I have to say, when it comes to minor characters, some of them were really bad. In terms of acting. That guy Dion Bosko, who played the first victim, played even worse than most bad actors I've seen before. Anyway, were these people really THAT stupid??? I mean, if it's true what the film shows about how Jeffrey got his victims to come home with him, it was, in some way, their own fault that they got killed. I mean, who would ever follow a weird guy home who buys you sneakers and wants to take pictures of you. I really hope that's just the movie, and the real Jeffrey had to do a little more work there. "Do you want to smoke some weed?" "Yeah sure" I mean... HELLO? Although the acting and the directing is good enough, to make you believe, at least a bit, that those people really were that stupid.
So, all in all, a good movie. If you don't expect a gory blood orgy, you won't be disappointed.
