Viewing Notes

via Netflix

Although he seems like a harmless bridal shop owner, John is actually a serial killer, doing in his young customers on their wedding nights. I can’t help but think there are layers of inspiration in here from Psycho, but at the same time it manages not to cheese off that film at all and does its own thing.  There are a few points where this drags a bit but overall I liked how this one played out.
