The new horror movie “The Alphabet Killer” didn’t register on my radar until I found out Rob Schmidt was directing it. I’m a fan of Schmidt, have been since he turned in the backwoods horror of “Wrong Turn”. For my money, that is an under appreciated gem in the genre of slasher movies. Schmidt’s latest is “The Alphabet Killer”, a serial killer movie based on a true story starring Eliza Dushku, Cary Elwes, Timothy Hutton, and Michael Ironside. Dushku was the star of Schmidt’s “Wrong Turn”, and Elwes has had his hands full with serial killers lately, having starred in the first “Saw” movie. And over at its official site, “The Alphabet Killer” gets a trailer.

A crime scene photographer and a police detective engage the help of a college professor for leads on a child killer who picks his victims according to the initials in their name. Based on the true unsolved crimes in Rochester, New York in the 1970’s.
