This is my weekend to add comments, apparently -- "Suspect Zero" was directed by Elias Merhige, who also did the much-better-than-you-would-think "Shadow of the Vampire" (about the making of F.W. Murnau's 'Nosferatu'; except Willem DeFoe turns out to be an actual Vampire!), which was more art-house movie than actual horror film. That, however, is to be expected from the man who brought us the primitive film masterpiece, 'Begotten'. I can't really tell you what it's about, except to say that it seems to depict some kind of cosmology of the world. If you went back in time, gave cavemen a film camera, somehow explained to them how to use it, 'Begotten' is the film I think you would end up with. It's the cinematic equivalent of cave painting. Recommended.

I loooooved Shadow of the Vampire! A-ha, no wonder there were so many cool visual touches, lots of grainy black and white, and then super-saturated blues and russets and browns and reds.

Yeah, I saw Suspect Zero, too. I liked it alot, and I was surprised on how much I did. It was entertaining, and nothing more. Not a genius movie, but still worth seeing in the theatres, or on video. Better on preformance rather than the actual story. The problem was that it had alot of talking, and then silence for about 8 minutes, and then talking again, and it repeated itself a little bit. MY theory was that Carrie Ann Moss was going to be bad, but that also fell through, kinda like your Iragi theory. Eric
