Striking Distance
They shouldn't have put him in the water, if they didn't want him to make waves.
Directed by Rowdy Herrington
Produced by Columbia Pictures, Arnon Milchan Productions
A gritty serial-killer thriller built on paranoia and betrayal, where a disgraced cop must prove his innocence while hunting a killer within his own ranks.
Coming from a police family, Tom Hardy ends up fighting his uncle after the murder of his father. Tom believes the killer is another cop, and goes on the record with his allegations. Demoted to water-way duty Tom, along with new partner Jo Christman, navigate the three rivers looking for clues and discovering bodies. This time the victims are women Tom knows, he must find the killer to prove his innocence.
