THE KILLER INSIDE ME: Who knows what evil lurks inside the hearts of men?"A small town with a big problem. Hidden under it's apple pie, please and thank you exterior is a dirty, horrid little secret. Mild mannered Loud Ford (an awesome Casey Affleck) is a seemingly upstanding officer of the law doing what he does until an off beat encounter with a local prostitute, Joyce (an amazing Jessica Alba) slaps his head and seems to jiggle loose prior years of abuse and deviancy. We watch slack jawed while this upstanding man turns into a sexual deviant and criminal out for revenge and the hole gets dug deeper and deeper every minute. Be warned that the violent scenes are not just violent, but gruesome and disturbing. 
His "best gal" Amy (an extraordinary Kate Hudson) stays by his side despite any misgivings and is paid in full for her loyalty. There were no bad actors in this one. Every one gave a solid performance, different from my preconceived notions of them. This was a serious thriller and there is no way to describe the ending as less than explosive. Some scenes in this movie were ice hot and so sexually charged it seemed to walk a fine line. Other scenes were so gruesome and horrible that it felt more like a well made horror film; but this horror was beyond blood and guts. Surprisingly, even though disturbing, it was wrapped with such a pretty bow that contained it just enough to keep things from going over the top. The violence wasn't random and it made for a compelling character with Lou. I thought this was well done across the board and kept the balance just right. A very good movie.
