Woman of the Hour - Film Review
Benjamin Lee, theguardian.com
"In a genre where the gore and gristle of serial killers can become overly fetishised, along with the bodies of the many women they kill, Kendrick smartly decides how to show us Alcala’s violence and how much to humanise his victims. In the spliced vignettes, we see how Alcala, played with eerie confidence by Daniel Zovatto, weaponised the many privileges afforded to him as a handsome, well-spoken white man, easily inserting himself into lives that he would then cruelly end. The deaths are tough to watch without being explicit, restrained without sacrificing the necessary shock value." For the full review please CLICK HERE.
