Instinct to Kill (2001)
Escaped serial killer James Becket, who killed his own father whose expectations he never fulfilled, but now especially targets his wife Theresa 'Tess' and her family, is too good at disguising himself and other deceit for detective Diffs task force. Only one man proves able to fight back in his league: former cop J.T. Dillon, who was already training Tess in self-defense and becomes her lover. Becket decides to find hiding place by kidnapping Diffs wife, and thus enforce a final show-down.

Best movie of this year hands down!
Sorry, this movie sucks
Brilliant and touching
Blistering performances.
This comment might be a spoiler for this dumb movie, but even I don't have the answer so I'm not really spoiling the movie then am I? The one person who was trying to save BOTH THEIR DUMB ASSES (the chick and the supposed teacher), we never get an update. If Kadeem had to die, so be it, but at least we should have gotten the chance to know. Then the end of the movie, the girl and the guy walk off happy and laughing and joking like no one else played the part of trying to kill her stupid ex-husband so she could be safe. Are you kidding me??? Are you freakin' kidding me??? "I'm gonna teach you how to relax!" Seriously!!!!! Suck it producer and director!! Kadeem, I liked your character very much in this movie, despite the dumb people you had to work with.
They should have a 0 rating choice so this movie could get what it deserves. What a complete pile of crap! Maybe I'm just a sick person who likes to torture myself by watching movies I know are going to be garbage cans, but hey... someone has to watch it right? Anyway, this is just another example of a waste of time and money. It's the same old "Murderer Husband gets busted trying to kill wife only to escape from prison and hunt her down but unaware that she hired a trainer to teach her to fight back" story. B movie from hell! Complete rip off of other movies, even going as far to rip off The Silence of the Lambs, Lector prison break scene! If you like to force yourself into clawing your eyes out because of the bad scenes and you feel like sticking nails in your ears due to lame script, then make sure you sit through this piece of trash.This junk gives beating a dead horse new meaning... it literally is beyond belief in it's attempt to make the viewer feel for any of these characters. I could go on all day, but I won't.. I just wanted to warn you all that watching this will probably ruin your day.
This has to be one of the worst films I have ever seen! Understand, I like Dacascos, and he's done some fairly good stuff (Drive, Only the Strong, Redemption was OK, Cradle to the Grave was OK). He's a phenomenal martial artist and is a decent actor. This was simply a choice he must have made while drunk or something.The effects (even the film quality) were LOUSY! I have seen higher quality filming techniques and effects from 1950's film. Also (this is my personal opinion), if you have to put that much sex into a movie, that should be taken as a desperate attempt at making it worth watching, which it does not. Also, I'm simply sick and tired of seeing the hero fight the villain and get beat within an inch of his life, then the bad guy die in some absurd way (like the hero getting choked and then the villain's moron ex-wife shoots him)!Like I said, if you ever see this on a shelf in the rental store or coming on a movie channel, RUN AWAY! You WILL HATE this film!
I watched the movie thinking, hmmm Mark Dacoscos, I liked him in Drive from 1996, so maybe this wont be bad, WRONG!!!!! This movie is a 100% "B" movie, and a B- at that.. I seen everything coming an hour before it occured; this story has been done to death a millions times. Every actor has a stinker now & then, this is Dacoscos stinker!!! I give it a 2.1 out of 10, pretty bad!
