Movie from Hell is more like it. The only connection between the story here and the legendary Jack the Ripper murders from Victorian England is that people get killed. Supposedly there’s some kind of modus operandi link, but given the movie villain’s lack of discrimination regarding tools and victim genders, it’s hard to regard the connection as anything more than superficial. That tie severed, all we have here is yet another tiresome, who-done-it-why-done-it-who-gives-a-crap slasher movie. Final nail in the coffin: copious use of trite “think outside the box” cliché. Wish I’d skipped it
