Serial Killer is an unusually blunt title, so the critical interest lies in what the film does beyond announcing repeated violence. Track how attention is divided between the perpetrator, potential victims and people trying to interpret a pattern. Does another death alter the audience's understanding, or only renew the same expectation? The answer determines whether repetition develops a psychological or social argument rather than becoming an end in itself.
