Joe and Laura ignite an instant attraction but their romance is thrown off course when Laura experiences visions of upcoming murders! Together, the begin to slowly unravel clues about the gruesome crime! Stylish, suspenseful and highly entertaining you cant look away from AFTER IMAGE as Joe and Laura learn that the killer is closer to them revenge of the pink panther 1978 they could have ever imagined! I used to like thrillers over horror movies because I figured that the psychology involved meant a lot more thought needed to be put into the characters and plotline to make it work. Lately that kind of reasoning has been kind of failing me. Not that this is a bad movie by any means. Its just kind of unnecessary. The idea is good and Im revenge of the pink panther 1978 to it because of a similar situation in a Carl Hiaasen novel. A crime-scene photographer who is severely affected by the nature of his photographs decides to escape for a while, going to stay with his aunt. Unfortunately, a psychopath is loose and chasing down the photographer and his new girlfriend, who is deaf and sees visions of future crimes, a la something like In Dreams and whatnot. I figured this movie would be interesting to see because of the idea of an after image affecting the photographer character and how he deals with his, erm, photographic memory, but it didnt really concentrate on that. I thought itd be interesting seeing Louise Fletcher, the ol Nurse Ratchet herself, in a different role than the one that terrorized Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest. Instead, besides her being older and a bit more heavy, its not. I cant really say for sure that this movie is that good or that bad. On one hand, it took the time to really develop an interesting group of characters. On the other hand, most of them were archetypes and presented half of the time in slow motion to create drama. The self-reflective element of the camera or the mirror, reflected and divided imaging and the like, wasnt really there. The director obviously took a lot of time finding ways to present the action through an other lens, but not really for any real reason except maintaining consistancy. I want to say this to the director: good work, now go make something interesting. Maybe we just have someone who needs a bit of practice on our hands. Robert Manganellis After Image employs an extraordinarily rich cinematic palette. Relying on a sophisticated use of sound and image, often working on different expressive planes, After Image brings together two characters at crossroads in their lives. Joe, understatedly played by John Mellecamp, is a crime scene photographer who can no longer find meaning in his difficult career and decides to return to his childhood home. Laura, beautifully played by Terrylene, is a deaf woman who experiences premonitions. Her most recent visions bring her physically and spiritually close to Joe as they attempt to find and stop a vicious serial killer who preys on the innocent. There are a number of points that should be brought out. As director, Manganelli is in complete control of his medium and knows from scene to scene, moment to moment, where to lead an audience. Moreover, the subtle undertones of this film, slowly developed in rich poetic ways, makes it so much a cut above the ordinary American film offerings. Exquisitely using the backdrops of western New York and specifically the city of Rochester home to Eastman Kodak, Manganelli reflects on the genuine human connections people make at very desperate moments in their lives. This is a film about being vulnerable, being melancholy, and also a film about extraordinary human acceptance and forgiveness. You will not be disappointed in this film.
