Grizzled detective Chandler Manning is on the trail of a ruthless killer intent on slaughtering prostitutes along West Hollywood's Sunset Strip. Meanwhile, a mysterious stranger called Malcolm Slaight rents a guesthouse from Joe (Donal Logue) and Ellen Bunting, a married couple struggling to preserve their fragile union after their plans to start a family have ended in tragedy.
Manning, shunned both by his daughter Amanda and his suicidal wife Margaret as a result of his single-minded dedication to police work, teams up with unlikely rookie partner Street Wilkenson, only to make a startling discovery. It appears that the murderer's grisly methods are identical to that of London's infamous 19th century psychopath Jack the Ripper - a relentless serial killer who was never caught by police. To make matters worse, Manning soon notices the parallels between the crimes committed by the West Hollywood stalker and those of a serial murderer Manning incarcerated years ago. More »

Ah another remake. Always makes me worry, but I am kind of looking forward to this one. It's a Hitchc*ck remake so always gotta check that out. This one does look kinda cool. I see the cinemaphotographer did the Saw franchise so it should look good.
With all the cheesy oscar stuff out right now, I'm actually happy a good thriller is coming out.
