There's a car accident, and the driver is in a coma for a week. When he wakes up, you find out his wife was in the car with him and that she's dead.
There's another murder that happened last week, a celebrity was killed. We find out shortly that our hero is an obsessive fan of this celebrity, that he's seeing a psychiatrist, and that he's a well known "crazy artist". There's no end to the list of questions you could be asking after the first half hour. All your questions are answered by the end of the movie, but I didn't enjoy the ride. I wouldn't really recommend this movie, but I can't give much of a reason for it.
The plot gets thicker and you gradually find out that everything you thought was true is false and eventually the whole story comes out. In the end... somewhat interesting, but not impressive. I'm not sure why, but I didn't really like this movie. Even though it has all the elements of a good psychological thriller, I found it slow and boring. I'd rate this film lower, but it was technically sound, well made in all the ways I can recognize. I can appreciate that more after seeing so many movies with bad quality and a good story that would have been better served by more technical merit.
