The Collector is directorial debut of Marcus Dunstan, the writer of several Saw movies.

But is it a satisfying horror film, or just pointless?

Heres Daves DVD review… You see, The Collector is a man who goes around collecting people.

3 stars

However, no matter where he turns, death awaits.

It makes for some grim viewing, with a few moments actually being quite stomach churning.

Its a film of two parts, really.

3 stars

First off, weve got some fantastically graphical moments of gore brought about by some cleverSaw-esque torture devices.

Perhaps its time for filmmakers to try something entirely different.

You cant help but feel that they are seeing something deeper than I did.

3 stars

Theres also an alternate ending that features Arkin running away from the house.

Its definitely a film where youre more likely to remember the horror than the characters.

Film:
