Editorial Review: Aubrey Fleming (Lindsay Lohan) was living the small town life until the day she was abducted by a sadistic killer. After a frantic search Aubrey turns up alive but changed. She is missing limbs but has gained a new personality - that of bad girl Dakota Moss. Her parents and the FBI think she s suffering from delusions but if Dakota is just a trick of her mind why do strange wounds keep appearing on her body? Desperate and alone Aubrey must now unlock family secrets to unmask a mysterious killer with a deadly obsession.System Requirements:Running time: 106 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA/PSYCHOLOGICAL DRAMA Rating: R UPC: 043396214705 Manufacturer No: 21470 Description of I Know Who Killed Me: Lindsay Lohan made a bid for stardom in a grown-up role with this overripe thriller, in which a serial killer's attack causes her personality to shift from model student to sultry stripper. The burlesque queen (named Dakota) may or may not be the subject of a writing exercise by student Aubrey, but once the latter is abducted and mutilated by a vicious killer, the former takes over, much to the consternation of Aubrey's parents (Julia Ormond and Neal McDonough). Director Chris Sivertson (who proved his knack for suspenseful material with The Lost) works hard to gild the nonsensical script with as much visual panache as possible (and he's mostly successful), but there's no getting past the dreary violence or Lohan's performance, which flounders in its attempt to deliver raw sexuality. Lohan's off-screen difficulties helped sink the picture during its brief theatrical run; undoubtedly, her stage routines (which are featured in an extended version on the disc's extras) will be the DVD's chief point of interest, as the movie itself is too flimsy to draw much attention on its own. The supplemental features also include an alternate opening and conclusion (which add nothing to the final product) and a blooper reel. -- Paul Gaita Extras from I Know Who Killed Me Beyond I Know Who Killed Me at Amazon.com  On Blu-ray |  CD Soundtrack |
Stills from I Know Who Killed Me (click for larger image) !-- end6pak --> I Know Who Killed Me Reviews: Disappointing...even by Lindsay standards  2008-07-21 - Let me start by saying I do not dislike Lindsay Lohan, she was great in mean girls and georgia rule as well, even though a lot of critics disliked the movie I appreciated the premise and the actresses. This movie was one that I waited to come out on hbo because I wasnt sure I was going to like it. I was right.
Warning-may contain spoilers
Aubrey Flemming and Dakota Moss are two separate people, but apparently after Aubrey is abducted, Dakota is the one that ends up in her spot, and no one can come up with the answer because their date of birth and all records are the same. The whole part where she tries to piece it together with her dad didnt make much sense to me as they were supposedly twins separated at birth, as the mother wouldnt know this? He gave it to a neighbor to raise? I am not sure what happened there. Enter the sadistic piano teacher who becomes the villian, but we cant really know why he is so angry apart from people who no longer want to take piano lessons?
These arent even the worst parts or questions for the movie, its really the ending where she finally pieces it together in this confusing dramatic violent way. She suddenly realizes who killed her, and then she finds herself so to speak, aka audrey. Wow, by the end of this movie I was questioning along with the other reviewers of this movie, how it ended here. Not that I wasnt looking forward to the end because the scenes were long and drawn out, especially the exotic dancer scenes. But they ended it abruptly, like they ran out of financial backing or something.
End result, skip this one...
I KNOW WHAT KILLED THIS MOVIE! 1 1/2 STARS!  2008-06-22 - This is a strange movie! It's absolutely ridiculous with huge plot holes you could drive a truck through, but I managed to stick with it to the perplexing ending! Quite gory for this type a film with lots of bloody dismemberment scenes and has quite a few totally unnecessary (Lohan) strip pole sequences, so obviously put there to keep guys from falling asleep.....it doesn't work! I've seen worse, so I guess I would give it 1 1/2 stars for tricking me into watching this 2 hour piece of $#it! You've been warned!
A perfect movie for such a garbage actress, bad bad bad.  2008-06-16 - anyone who's given this movie more than 1 star is a complete fool and should never watch movies again, anyone who actually has the audacity to compare this to an independent film type movie or to put this movie in their top 10( some of the 5 star reviews) need to die where they stand. This was easily the worst movie I've ever seen in my entire life, for some reason my girlfriend and I sat through 2 hours of hell to watch this garbage, throughout the movie there's hole's in the story line, ridiculous gratuitous stripping scenes that are completely unnecessary and just too many occasions where I just wanted to shut the movie off for the sake of my mental stability.
WATCH THIS MOVIE IF YOU WANT TO COMMIT SUICIDE SLOWLY. SO BAD.
A Guy's Review  2008-05-30 - Here's what I'd like to say. First of all I hate the fact that it's always violence against women. Second of all,this movie showed me one thing, be carefull who you trust with your kids or with yourself. Third of all, watching this movie made me decide to find a movie where MEN are tortured for a change. If there's a movie like that, I'll find it and rent it. I love women. I think violence against women is overused.
Very mixed feelings about this one  2008-05-17 - I think Lindsay Lohan has potential as an actress. She did well in this one with the dialog she was given, but I've seen her in only one other movie (Georgia Rule). In both, she was a "bad girl," but I've read that she considers herself a princess and is difficult to work with, so maybe this sort of thing isn't a problem for her because it's in character.
SPOILERS AHEAD
I love psychological thrillers, but there were a lot of gaps and loose ends in this movie. What bothered me most was that the ending wasn't satisfying. It was easy enough to figure out that the piano teacher cut off their right hands and feet because that's what they most used for piano, and it was offensive to him that they wanted to drop out of piano classes. Perhaps some people have that sort of passion for teaching piano, but I hope not.
Even in the alternate ending, it was never explained why the piano teacher had something similar to a meat house in his cellar, filled with prosthetics. He wasn't providing prosthetics to hospitals in the movie, so that didn't add anything as far as I'm concerned.
If you want a really good psychological thriller, try Identity. You can't beat that one.
