Identity
« on: Sep 4th, 2003, 1:29pm »		 Quote Quote Modify Modify
Ten strangers are forced to seek refuge in a run-down desert motel one dark and stormy night--and soon realize they've found anything but shelter.  
 
Story
Identity seems at first to be a cross between Agatha Christie's novel And Then There Were None and Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho but then twists into something even more surprising. It opens with a psychiatrist (Alfred Molina) examining the file of a serial killer who may or may not be on the loose and cuts to 10 travelers who find themselves stranded at a desolate motel during a savage rainstorm with no communications and no way out. A good place to start getting picked off one by one by an unknown killer, where the culprit could be any one of the eclectic cast of characters. Could it be Larry (John Hawkes), the twitchy motel manager; Ed (John Cusack), a secretive limo driver; Caroline (Rebecca DeMornay), a washed-up actress; Rhodes (Ray Liotta), a suspicious cop transporting a killer (Jake Busey) to jail; Paris (Amanda Peet), a hooker with a heart of gold, or a pair of not-so-happy newlyweds, Ginny (Clea DuVall) and Lou (William Lee Scott)? To round out the group, there is also the York family--stepdad George (John C. McGinley), young son Timmy (Bret Loehr) and mom (Leila Kenzle), who has been seriously injured in a car accident. As the dead begin to outnumber the living, the hapless survivors have precious time to figure out why they've all been drawn to this motel--and whom among them is a cold-blooded murderer. The answer turns the film on end.  
 
 
Was very impressed with this movie.

Cannot WAIT to see this.  Have a friend coming over tomorrow night to grill steaks and watch a movie. Hopefully, I can get lucky at the video store tomorrow.  Out of that cast, any of them would make good killers. But I am going to guess Rebecca DeMorney. She has the most experience playing psychotics.    Wink

What an AWESOME movie!   I urge you all to see it.   Shocked
Twists and turns all the way up to the last second.  Loved all of the characters.  Also fun seeing Gary Busey's brother. They are so much alike.  John Cusack rocked as usual.  All in all, one of the best scary movies I have ever seen.   Cool
