Black Rose (2014)


IMDb plot summary: A Russian Police Major is enlisted by the LAPD to help solve a series of gruesome murders perpetrated against young women by a sadistic sociopathic killer on the mean streets of Hollywood.
Directed by Alexander Nevsky. Starring Alexander Nevsky, Kristanna Loken, Adrian Paul, and Robert Davi.

A pretty bland crime movie overall, but I did find the patter between the two leads actually moderately enjoyable, if cheesy. Other than that, though, it follows just about every predictable pattern possible. When the killer is finally revealed, it's treated like a much more significant moment than it was given that I'd completely forgotten this character existed. Definitely a throwaway movie.

How it entered my Flickchart:
Black Rose < Melinda and Melinda
Black Rose < Snatch.
Black Rose > The Tribe
Black Rose < The Right Stuff
Black Rose < Spinning Into Butter
Black Rose > Live Free or Die Hard
Black Rose < Rikki-Tikki-Tavi
Black Rose < Seasons of the Heart
Black Rose < The Hiding Place
Black Rose < Penelope
Final spot: #2721 out of 3166.
