A refreshing and fiendishly intriguing serial killer mystery thriller Blood Rain takes a traditional detective tale and relocates it to an earlier age much in the spirit of In The Name Of The Rose and Brotherhood Of The Wolf. The film's lavish production values add a pleasing richness to the proceeding whilst the unexpected and extremely grisly violence is at times as shocking as that in any current Asian thriller. Blood Rain is a delightfully dark and devious who-dunnit told with style and intelligence.
