The Los Angeles Ripper

About This Movie

The Los Angeles Ripper (2020) dives into the grimy underbelly of LA, capturing an unsettling atmosphere that's hard to shake off. It's got that gritty, raw feel, almost like a throwback to those rough-edged 70's horror flicks. The pacing can be a bit uneven, but it builds tension effectively, especially as Lt. Hedley gets closer to the sadistic killer. The practical effects are a highlight, really pushing the boundaries of what's shown, which adds to the horror element. Performances are decent, with a few standout moments that draw you in. It’s interesting how it pays homage to "The New York Ripper" while carving its own niche. Definitely has its own vibe that sets it apart from typical modern horrors.
