For all its style and assurance, Tell Me Something is not ultimately original enough to sustain its many horrific images, however brief they may be.

Rated: 2.5/5

A stylish serial killer film, there nonetheless was too much talk and not enough madness.

A stylish thriller that is not afraid to venture into gruesome territory. It does a good job building up suspense, but there are perhaps too many plot twists towards the end. I do like movies that end on ambiguous note, but this one seems to overdo it a bit, definitely achieving the goal of confusing the audience.
