SERIAL KILLER: MYSTERY THRILLER IS SILLY BUT A LOT OF FUN
Hein Kaiser
‘Trap’ is halfway there

The creative mind responsible for adding the phrase "I See Dead People", from his 1999 horror The Sixth Sense, to the collective consciousness is director and writer M Night Shyamalan.

And he has a new flick on the shelf. It's called Trap, and it's a movie that has the potential to take audiences into the fold of an orgasmic thriller. But instead it gets frustratingly close to being a good ride. Yet it's popcorn worthy, nonetheless.

The setup is as crazy as the plot. Josh Hartnett plays firefighter Cooper Abbot who takes his daughter Riley to pop star Lady Raven's concert as a reward for her good grades.

The excitement is real for Riley, played by 14-year-old Australian Ariel Donoghue. But while dad and daughter are settling into the show, an unusually high police presence around the venue bothers Cooper.

He discovers that the FBI is staging a manhunt for the Butcher, a serial killer reported to be in the audience.
