Thr3e
 
I've never heard of Thr3e, but it seems to be showing up in my local theater on Friday. Anybody know anything about this or read the book?

From what I can read about it from IMDB and Ted Dekker's site, it seems to be a PG-13 flick about a serial killer that leaves behind riddles and impossible timelines for his next victim. Or something. It's kind of jumbled, but I keep getting pointed to Christian sites and Dekker's main site.

It is the pre-pre-pre-prequel to Se7en.

Written by the late Donald Kaufman, I presume?

Ted Dekker is a Christian thriller writer guy... It's too bad that most people won't read his stuff because of the stigma "Christian" has, but...

the book was excellent. the trailer for the movie looks AWFUL.

From what I've read in story summaries, the twist seems to be exactly the same as Donald's version of The 3 seen in Adaptation. Can anyone confirm this?

It's a taut psychological thriller I hear. Silence of the Lambs meets Dressed to Kill.

If this guy is a Christian writer, then the twist would fall in line with the concept of the Holy Trinity.

I love serial killer movies, but this whole Christian friendly movie hype has me hesitant to buy this dvd or even rent it...Has anyone seen this movie?

Just rented this yesterday from Blockbuster.Don't understand the christian relation because it's just a horror movie with toned down gore.Basically just a Saw ripoff-the bad guy keeps calling his victims with riddles to solve before something bad happens to them or loved ones.Even the voice on phone copies the Saw movies.Our bad guy is Bill Mosely("The Devil's Rejects') nad he is basically playing a pyscho,what he does best.Worth a rental at least.
