The Plot:

A bunch of squad police cars arrives at an Emergency call racing through the streets of Atlanta, Georgia and find dead bodies everywhere done in a grizzly art form with their bodies torn apart. They missed the killer doing this although one of the survivors was the head of a New York Russia Mafia.

Then they move down to London but the assassin named Gideon Quinn (Richard Driscoll) also moved there and is working for the police as a pathologist. While the family is still on the hunt for the killer Quinn is on a mission for revenge disguising himself as other people as the police killed his wife and unborn child.

Meanwhile, a bisexual Russian mob boss named Georgina Thereshkova (Linnea Quigley) ends up making out with some of the women there who turn out as victims afterwards and she is also in questioning with the horrible murders.

Bottom Line & Comments:

Although this independent feature was well done and cleverly made in many scenes there are many tiring moments and the story almost fails to deliver the plot.
It's still mysterious with some twists and turns.

Acting:

A solid performance by many of the British actors for this British flick.
Richard Driscoll is wonderful as the mysterious cannibalistic killer disguising himself with different names in order to hide away from the Inspectors and is nasty with his role.
Scream queen Linnea Quigley who plays a tough bisexual Russian spy who looks like she's an American trying to put on an accent but she delivers her role incredibly well nevertheless.
I also enjoyed Lucien Morgan's role as the stern Inspector Lewis Reed which I found the best actor out of all three.
The acting really helped the plot big time whenever it got tiresome.

Nudity:

There are many nude scenes throughout this film but it's very artsy instead of using it for an excuse to keep the viewers from watching this film.
Linnea's character pulls open a woman's red coat as her breasts are exposed.
A blonde woman takes off almost all of her clothes at some sort of a cathedral while a guy doggy style has sex with her.
Also a woman's arms are tied up and her leather outfit is cut off exposing her full nudity along with another woman lying on a bed making out with Linnea's character.
Linnea
also performs topless for a couple of scenes too.

Gore:

A group of people are nailed to a wall in the beginning systematically slaughtered.
A coroner is working with some corpses bodies that are torn open as well as showing many others corpses with their insides torn out but the bodies look totally fake as you can tell that they are dummies.
A guy's face is bitten off from the side of his face by Quinn in a Hannibal Lector kind of way.

Directing:

Richard Driscoll also directed this piece as well as produced and wrote it apart from starring in it as he eseemed to know his craft well in all four (Well some of his writing for the film could've been better like I mentioned).
He coached the actors extremely well making the film a total whodunnit mystery horror.
There is a terrific scene with his role and the one who played his scarred mother in the hospital on her death bed as well as him lying Linnea Quigley's character in a room after the museum incident where he was making out with her.

Soundtrack:

The music is superbly composed by Patrick Bird and John Klein.
Their most effective composotions are during when Linnea's character is in a room for questioning as well as at a gothic museum.

There were also songtracks by classical composers.
There was also hard core music in the film too which I wasn't wild over by an artists named Gioacchino Rossini.
Once a CD soundtrack was available by a small label named Nightingale Records.
