Review of Ripper

By the time she was sixteen, Molly Keller had already lived to tell a very bloodcurdling tale: she was the only survivor of a violent massacre while on an otherwise peaceful island vacation with her friends. Disturbed by her horrific past, Molly focuses all of her energies in researching the psyche of serial killers. This leads her to the forensic science program at Berkeley under famed author and man hunter Professor Martin Kane. But before long, the evil that claimed Molly's friends is seemingly loose once again - this time on the campus. A reluctant Molly joins the study group which is fixated on tracking the gruesome murderer. But events take an eerie turn when the students discover that the killer's modus operandi matches London's oldest unsolved murders: those of Jack the Ripper. Molly's friends fall victim around her, one at a time, while the remaining group work feverishly to uncover the identity of the copycat killer. As the past re-awakens, Molly is forced to face the terrifying secret behind the stalker's return, and the entire class soon realises that it's a history that they don't want to repeat.

This film starred: A.J. Cook, Bruce Payne & Jurgen Prochnow.

RIPPER was released in 2001 and is a slasher film based on Jack the Ripper. This film ran for a bit too long as it is 1 hour 50 minutes long, no slasher film is on for this long. So not very surprisingly this is a slow and boring horror film based on a Jack the Ripper copycat killer. I don't recommend this film because it is not very good and not a film that you will want to tell your friends about or a film that you will remember for very long yourself.

**/***** Poor.
