I like him as an actor..one of my faves. He was the best thing about the movie, Traffik (which was better than I expected even though I wouldn't classify it as horror, more mystery/thriller). Lussier and Epps have a history with the Scream films (even though he had a brief part).
"Detective Mike Denver, a man obsessed with a killer that has eluded him for years. The story centers on an elusive serial killer, who descends upon a small town annually. He is responsible for gruesome murders year after year, each seemingly unrelated. No one believes this could be the same killer. Detective Denver (Epps) has faced Trick once before, having shot and killed him. Or so everyone keeps telling him. However, Denver knows Trick is still out there, and he’s coming back for revenge."
Which one? There was a The Gift from the early 2000s or the newest film with Jason Bateman from recent?Bought The Gift recently. Never seen it before, so I’m interested to see if it lives up to the hype.
This right here from the article:
I would advise them against doing that. A slasher movie killer needs to have a recognizable mask/look to have any shot at reaching icon status.
There really wasn't.
We never find out what caused the doppleganger to appear, the fact that the top camgirl "Babygirl" was actually dead in real life was just dropped completely, and after all that happened, ol girl goes right back to being a camgirl but this time she has on a blonde wig. 
Worse than all of that, there was no actual danger. None of this really affected her in real life. Worst thing that happened to her was her family finding out she was a camgirl.
Maybe that was supposed to be it but...that wasn't enough for a supposed "horror" film.

I'll say this, ol girl was working with a lil bit. When "she" put on that 80s exercise fit
I kind of like the idea of a nondescript serial killer mask or identifier as a break from the formula... depends on the execution though. (pun not intended). Seems like from the background story this could maybe pull it off..
You’re both right in terms of iconography. But that’s if they’re going for that. If they just want a cat out there hacking and slashing and want the focal point to be Omar, they can skate

. Yeah, that was a good movie imo. Been awhile since I watched but from my recall it was an interesting watch.

I watched about 30-40 minutes. Reminds me of One Hour Photo.

That's exactly what it was and unfortunately the horror bits never clicked, but on the post modern tip it was a great satire of the art world on the other side.
I may give it a look then. But it just feels like something Craven would’ve made a home run

Craven would have been absolutely perfect for it. They needed someone with real horror chops to handle that aspect because every horror scene flops (every single one). There are cool concepts though, it just failed at being scary. The humor bodied me though.
Still sucks he’s gone
