Nightcrawler
This is not a sneak preview. This film has already released.
An enterprising scrap metal thief (Jake Gyllenhaal) becomes fascinated with the world of late night sensationalized news reporting. Gyllenhaal gives an amazingly creepy performance as an amoral nightcrawler crossing the line from filming the news to orchestrating the news for money and the attention. He is a psycho train wreck but you can't keep your eyes off of him and you definitely don't want to run into him. This is a disturbing look at TMZ journalism/nightstalking/ambulance chasing. It will make you think about some of those startling photos and videos were obtained. This chilling film is very well done but not necessarily easy to watch or everyone's cup of tea.
Alien gives it 3 ½ "at any cost" stars out of 4.
