Quick Hit

The Collector either bites hard or fizzles out; this one lands well below the line. There’s some life in it, but not enough.

Full Take

The setup has teeth; the payoff decides whether it bites. The craft is either locked in or hanging by a thread, and this movie knows it. British genre discipline gives the film a cleaner shape than many of its pulp peers. The set pieces are what matter, and this one gets some mileage out of them. That’s enough to push it into BAD.
