comment |
The Alibi: Invoked. Franck tries to set up a quite complex alibi. He persuades one of his colleague to simulate a car chase with the serial killer. Since Franck would be one of the cops chasing the serial killer, he could not be the serial killer himself. It fails because other cops see their car chasing nobody. |

Serial Killer |
| Next Time I'll Aim for the Heart / int_7301ae04 |
comment |
Serial Killer: Franck Neuhart tries to kill several young women in separate incidents. Somehow Deconstructed, because he regularly fails to kill them due to his tendency to look away while shooting them and just leaves them seriously wounded and because he is declared mentally unfit to stand trial for his actions in the end. While the film ups the kill count a little, in Real Life Alain Lamare only successfully killed one person due to the aforementioned reason. |
