I-5 Killer Victims Trial Building One
In Beth Williams's case she and her friend were cleaning an industrial building one evening when Randy Woodfield surprised them. This is not a real gory movie but from what I have read about the real serial killer the producers opted to not glorify him, but rather portray lead detective as a sort of hero who sacrificed his own family life to do right by not only the one survivor Beth Williams who would eventually identify her rapist and his attempt to murder her, but to do right by all the victims who either suffered through a rape and subsequent trauma, and the victims who lost their lives to the I-5 killers gun.

You are given a couple of suspects but just see a guy in a hoodie with a bandage over his nose going about his business of raping and shooting random women. The manhunt takes over a year, and for the first half of the movie the viewer doesn't know who the killer is. I've always liked him ever since I first saw him back in Northern Exposure and then in Sex & The City. John Corbett plays detective Dave Kominek and does a decent enough job. Its based on a true story (and book) and centers on a detective from Salem, Oregon who connected the numerous murders and sexual assaults (44 victims) along interstate 5 which runs through California, Washington and Oregon.
She (Sara Canning) does a great job as 'Beth' and I appreciated how they took the time to show the physiological damage she faced afterwards. Her character plays a large role and the story focuses heavily on her relationship with the detective.

Don't waste two hours you'll never get back on this drivel. Runyan apparently didn't learn this in acting class. But serial killers get away with these crimes by being able to act innocent - they are sophisticated con men, great actors. Tygh Runyan seems to think that serial killers are glib and arrogant to the police. Granted, this was one of her early gigs but, the director should have ordered up several takes and given her some "direction" to get it right. Sara Canning had no subtlety at all.
