Storyline

On January 7th 2005, 29 year old Rick Rodriguez murdered his former nanny and then killed himself on a lonely desert highway. Hours earlier he had videoed his suicide note and this final message provided a remarkable insight into a deeply damaged life. It also lifted the lid on one of the most notorious religious cults to emerge out of the 1960s counter culture: The Children of God sect.

RTLoud and Clear ReviewsJan 11, 2025

Alice Eve and Antonio Banderas star in Cult Killer, a throwback to the serial killer thrillers of the 1990s that’s predictable and ridiculous but divertingly entertaining.

RTAssignment XJan 29, 2024

Decent if slightly self-conscious thriller.

Some disturbing twists never yield consistent suspense in this atmospheric thriller, which winds up more tedious than provocative.

RTCulture MixJan 25, 2024

Cult Killer took a potentially intriguing story idea about a vengeful serial killer and ruined it with messy plot holes, too many flashbacks, and an idiotic showdown scene that sinks this movie into a pile of cinematic garbage.
