If you loved And Soon the Darkness, try Alex Cross
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theyboth carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Mystery / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to And Soon the Darkness, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Alex Cross is
The Motor City’s back-alley sirens wail past Halloween decorations. Alex Cross sketches crime scenes in a notebook while his niece’s laughter drifts upstairs. A childhood friend’s body, posed like chess pieces, drags him into a chess match he never wanted. Across the board, a smiling killer sacrifices pawns just to watch him sweat. Cohen’s handheld panic keeps every move a heartbeat behind the music video pacing.
