To Protect & Serve

About This Movie

To Protect & Serve (2020) dives into the gritty underbelly of crime, with two detectives on the hunt for a cunning serial killer. The film has this raw, tense atmosphere that makes you feel the weight of their investigation. The pacing is interesting, sometimes slow to build but it really pays off in the more intense moments. I found the practical effects to be quite impressive; they lean heavily on realism rather than CGI, which really adds to the dread. The performances feel genuine, especially in the way the detectives grapple with their own demons while pursuing this elusive killer. There's a palpable sense of moral ambiguity that runs through the narrative making it distinct in the horror genre.
