Un patient troublant

source: Patient Killer

Too often these days we, the movie going public, are treated to nothing but monster budget films meant to distract us with over the top CGI and two dimensional characters spewing clichéd catch phrases. Even character driven films, such as the wonderful Birdman, cost as much as the GDP of a small country. So it's refreshing to see a truly independent film such as Patient Killer get it's day to shine. The first thing that struck me with this film was the beautiful cinematography. Technically this film was brilliant, lighting, sound design, set design etc. The characters in this film, led by Caspar Van Dien, Barbie Castro & Victoria Pratt, do a wonderful job of leading us through an intricate maze of story and misdirection. As a theater goer I would highly recommend this film. As a filmmaker myself I applaud those associated with this production their ability to present a quality production without the tens of millions Hollywood would spend and for keeping the spirit of indie film making alive.

I literally had to turn this off when I started thinking about doing myself in. This movie is awful. I couldn't go on. Is she the one who needs help? Is everyone imaginary because I'm getting vibes the plot is so dumb and obvious that it is her. She makes obvious bad choices. This movie is full of grade C "actors". Speaking of which, Stacy Dash was the worst. She tried to make the most of her small part by summoning the scene with * thrust out. What was with the the shirt and the *? Wad she hitting her mark because she planted herself in one spot and everyone had to work around her. I mean they're bodies were hitting up against her, because this chick was not moving from the center of that scene! It was hilarious! You're 50, Stacy, you're clueless! Put some clothes on! Who wrote this? Why? To what purpose? Who are these immature middle-aged babies she's treating? Why haven't any of them grown up? Why is every past middle aged person in this movie in arrested development? This gives mentql illness a bad name. It's also give psychiatrists a bad name and the entire field of psychology/psychiatry. This movie needs to be held for observation in a padded cell and everyone connected to this stinking pile

Quite interesting from the start a psychiatrist and her patients who are all strange in their own ways and a Boyfriend with issues. There is a Starship Troopers reunion. With Casper and Patrick. In fact Casper directs. Things fizzle out and the ending feels a little formula.

This movie is another gem from the "Killer" series by Concorde Films and Barbie Castro.The movie has all the thrills and twists of a big budget suspense film. An absolute must watch you will be surprised till the very end. Enjoy this ride it is excellent! Great cast as well. You will not be disappointed I promise.

Amazing actresses and actors in this film. The thriller in this movie is perfect. Love movies like this. I'd definitely watch it again. The intensity is real. Got me at the edge of my seat and couldn't blink.

Okay so the beginning of this one was Blah to say the least. Is this a made for TV movie??? It's friggin horrible. It's like a Hallmark movie or something. -1 Star for being boring....boring boring..... -1 Star for a really bad boring script....... The End was Bland, boring and just Bleh. 3/10

Well the movie story was not that bad but the cast was sooooo artificial, God!! they act they're acting it was so fake and artificial Victoria Pratt.. your role Supose to be a doctor Dear, an attractive Sexy doctor not a flirty prostitute &the assistant hahaha come on !!! &Not by any way u both were sexy nor attractive.. maybe maybe sexy but in a cheap and fake way Flipped my guts to watch waited for the closer to make sure that the director won't turn her out to be Psycho herself but unfortunately nothing was wrong with the character it was Victoria, &the assistant And their fake acting

Over the credits, a well-built man gets out of bed and does push-ups in his black trunks. He showers and dons a sharp, purple suit. Suddenly, he shoots himself. Clearly, this man wants to look his best for Death. As the opening credits end, a woman wakes up as if the preceding scene was a nightmare. We don't get to see her shower or get dressed, but she will make up for this in later scenes. This woman is beautiful and wealthy psychiatrist Victoria Pratt (as Victoria "Vicky" Wrightmar). She is the story's heroine, psychoanalyst, hypnotherapist and self-help author. Super-friendly, Ms. Pratt addresses her male patients in a sultry voice. This may be why Pratt has trouble relating professionally to attractive patient Patrick Muldoon (as Derek Barris), a slightly Rob Lowe lookalike. Pratt's tone with female patient Barbie Castro (as Blaire Bennett) is only a bit more professional. In fact, she seems overly warm and loving with everyone... The ambiguous title "Patient Killer" may refer to the backstory of this slow-burning thriller. Some years ago, we're told, Pratt's attractive patient David Chokachi (as Dylan McNalt) committed suicide. We see a bit of him in flashback. Presently, Pratt is seeing handsome Casper Van Dien (as Jason Turner), who also directed the movie. He directs himself to surprise Pratt, while sunning herself, with a rough strangle-kiss. This seems like a cheat, but you can decide for yourself. The ending surprised this viewer only in that a character turned out to be the sibling, rather than the spouse, of another character. One more gripe is the fact that Pratt seems ill-suited for her profession. People do not see their psychiatrists in candlelight or cocktails. Still, the actor-director and photographer Bernard Salzmann do give it a lush, dream-like quality. And, since most all and everyone are strangely inappropriate, they add up to a style. ****** Patient Killer (2015/01/13) Casper Van Dien ~ Victoria Pratt.

I loved this movie from beginning to end. I was in it for a short role and even I could not figure out who was the bad guy. So many twists and turns that nothing is certain until the end. You have got to watch this film. LOVED IT!! And talk about the eye candy yum yum . Victoria,Casper, Patrick, And Barbie are very nice to look at. It's amazing the quality of the film. The script alone is a master piece. Casper has amazing focus and understanding as a Director. The Director of Photography, man what an eye. Just a brilliant piece of work! I am surprised it's not in theaters all over the country. If I you get a chance please please watch this film please do. You won't regret it.
