As Griffin, Reeves fails to convince viewers that he’s a terrifying villain to be afraid of.

Perhaps it is for these reasons thathe never wanted to be involved in the movie from the beginning.

It’s hard to imagine Reeves disagreeing, seeing as he is also not a fan of the film.

FBI agent Joel Campbell, burnt-out and shell-shocked after years spent chasing serial killers, flees L.A. to begin a new life for himself in Chicago. But five months later, Joel’s best laid plans are abruptly cut short when his new hometown becomes the setting for some particularly gruesome murders – murders that could only have been committed by one man: David Allen Griffin.

I hate that movie.

you’re able to actually find other films where he played a villainous individual to success.

He winkingly portrayed himself as a pretentious scumbag inAlways Be My Maybeto scene stealing brilliance.
