Untraceable

April 9, 2008

Untraceable is a 2008 thriller film which stars Diane Lane, Joseph Cross, Billy Burke, and Colin Hanks. It was directed by Gregory Hoblit and is distributed by Screen Gems. The film is a social commentary on Internet schadenfreude.

Set in Portland, Oregon, the film involves a serial killer who rigs contraptions that kill his victims based on the number of hits received by a website ("www.killwithme.com") that features a live streaming video of the victim. Millions of people log on, hastening the victims’ violent deaths. Lane plays the protagonist, a cybercop named Jennifer Marsh, who pieces the mystery together, at great risk to the personal well-being of herself and her family.

I’m still hoping to see this movie with my family or friends. I think it’s very cool playing hide and seek with the cyber detectives and still don’t get caught. Oh yea, i heard that there is the real version of killmewith, the site is http://killwithus.com. Try to visit it :P
