While late to the game, <I>Psycho Killer</i> was one of my most anticipated films of 2026, and ended up being one of my least favorite films of 2026. The story, while interesting, just dragged on and on, and there were many unnecessary pieces leading to the conclusion of the film. Also, whomever decided to have "The Satanic Slasher" sound like <A HREF="https://batman.fandom.com/wiki/Bane_(Nolanverse)">Bane</A>, what were you thinking?
