ANTI-BODIES (Antikörper) - Cable TV Film Review 4/2/07

This German serial-killer with a twist movie was on this Saturday night on FilmFour as a Premiere showing and what is even stranger is that it is available to buy now as it has just been released on DVD by Tartan on Region 2 - So what is going on with this then? This twisted take with many nods towards "Silence Of The Lambs" fashions it's own little imaginative pieces with the possibility that everything isn't as happy in his idyllic country village; as a small town copper soon finds out, plagued by his Catholic conscience with the murder of a young girl. The capture of a renowned killer may just answer his questions or maybe not - as he gets dragged into a vacuous case of cat and mouse with not everything (as usual) being what it seems? Fairly derivative it's entertaining fare for a watch-once scenario but can get very slow in places.
