It's been some time since I watched both <I>Laid to Rest</i> films. After chatting with <A HREF="http://letterboxd.com/ari_hellraiser">Ariel</A> about one of our favorite films, <I>The Collector</i>, she recommended that I watch (revisit) these two films. There are similarities between the two - a silent killer who wears a mask and abducts people, and then tortures them in gruesome ways - but they are completely different in nature. Chromeskull, the villain, wears a camera to record his crimes, drives a fancy car, and wears a suit. He doesn't say a word, moves quickly, and then does his stuff. That's it.
<B>Setup</b>: I watched <I>Laid to Rest</i> with our <A HREF="http://letterboxd.com/lgoled">LG OLED in Perfect Black</A>. It's a dark film with a lot of moving parts, and attempts to recreate some of the <I>Saw</i> essence, but doesn't fully deliver in the end (which is why a sequel comes into play).
