HolySpider Review: Powerful Serial Killer Movie Takes Risks & Succeeds
The horror genre has always been scrutinized for its relationship with onscreen violence, but movies about serial killers, especially real ones, merit extra attention. These anomalous criminals have an outsized presence in fiction, and indeed in the popular imagination. Sometimes they are deployed as compelling, formidable villains and nothing more, on par with any other horror monster.
This sequence is painful to watch, as it should be. Through this woman, her difficult life, and her cruel murder, all the killings that follow are given the impact yielded by empathy. The so-called Spider Killer is just a presence in the scene, anonymous and malevolent, but he will never be so unknowable again. He is Saeed Hanaei : Builder, family man, veteran of the Iran-Iraq War, and Mashhad's self-appointed cleanser of "impure" women.
