The Collector

Hmmm, a new version of the John Fowles novel, perchance? Erm, no. This is a crass, silly and baffling slice of torture porn – with the audience being tortured, chiefly with boredom. An ordinary decent criminal burgles a house; once he's inside he realises that the owner and his family are now being held hostage by a masked wacko who has not reckoned on the burglar's secret presence – he is the only one who can rescue them. But why, oh why, is the sicko-hooded-torturer doing this awful stuff? Well, it's because he's a "collector" of people. Why? Who knows, or indeed cares?
