The Minus Man
Keep your eyes open for anything too ordinary.
Directed by Hampton Fancher
Produced by Fida Attieh Productions, The Shooting Gallery
A slow-burn psychological thriller about a charming serial killer whose ordinariness masks a void, exploring the gap between surface and hidden nature.
When the quiet and amiable Vann Siegert drifts into town, no one suspects the evil that lies beneath the surface. Despite his easy charm, Vann is merely a reflection of what those he encounters want him to be. Soon, as locals start to disappear, it becomes clear that an eerie subtraction is at work in the sleepy hamlet.
