Very Cool!!!
Highly Overrated But Still Good
It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
TAUGHT IN COLD BLOOD is a serial killer cheapie suffering from the usual budgetary constraints but otherwise doing fairly well with the mildly interesting premise. It's quite well made, well shot, and well acted, not by the standards of a proper movie, but for the micro-budget sub-genre that it has a place in. The conflicted lead character has a measure of depth which is quite unusual and there isn't gore for gore's sake here. I appreciated the psychological angle of the proceedings although the latter romantic stuff is less interesting.
