Untraceable (2008) 8/10

Starring : Diane Lane, Billy Burke, Colin Hanks, Joseph Cross
Director : Gregory Hoblit
Running Time : 101 mins

Jennifer Marsh (Lane) works in the FBI’s internet crime unit, catching criminals who use the web to commit crimes such as credit card theft, but when she and her colleagues come across a website named 'killwithme.com' she finds herself faced with a serial killer who murders people at a pace based on how many people view his website.

This is an interesting premise, though not an original one. I can recall an episode of The X-Files spin off series Millennium in which a similar type of killer existed, but in spite of not being wholly original this is still a fun thriller that allows the viewer to enjoy the tension of watching the victims deaths speed up based on how many people view the website
