SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Some films have a colour scheme, some films uses colour to make an artistic or symbolic point. I know who killed me is one such movie that at some point might have gotten that memo but something got lost between that memo and the set designers as every...single shot of this movie has blue in it somewhere. I am not joking- honestly as from the very moment this train wreck starts blue is in the shot and it never leaves. The colour is thrown seemingly randomly at anything and everything, there is no symbolism to this blue mess as the only discipline is chaos. I can only see Director Chris Sivertson saying the following "Paint everything blue! Do entire rooms in the stuff! Everything must be blue!! Blue roses, blue lights, blue rooms, blue clothes? Throw them in! I don't care if it does not make symbolic or artistic cohesion just throw it all in!" This makes the film look as if it does not trust the viewer to be smart enough to think past the pretty pictures nor does evoke the style of Dario Argento or David Fincher that it wants to copy. Instead it makes the film somewhat ugly to look. It overwhelms the viewer to the point that it irritates them as well as distracting them from the rubbish that is happening on screen.Speaking of rubbish, what is the plot of this movie? Well, Aubrey Fleming (played by Lindsay Lohan) is a fantastic student who is great at writing, she is loved by everyone as well as her boyfriend who she does not want to have sex with (this is going to change later in the film in the worst scene of the movie). Then one night she gets kidnapped by some serial killer (We never get a nickname or why he does kill teenage girls.) She is kept there for a few months until being discovered by a driver in a ditch however when at the hospital she claims that she is not Aubrey Fleming but Dakota Moss, a stripper who looks just like Aubrey in every way expect her personality which is more foul mouthed, sex crazed and all around nastiness that Aubrey is not. Now it is up for the police and Aubrey/Dakota to decide if Dakota is really Aubrey and find the killer.At first this seems like a needlessly gory rip-off of Silence of the Lambs and Seven but it quickly descends into an awe inspiring, incoherent mess that meddles with twins sharing injuries and seemingly supernatural serial killer stalking that does not work in the slightest way. I found myself going between laughing at the robotic acting and shouting a very loud "What" whenever something stupid happened on screen. The killer has no motive to speak of and just kidnaps Aubrey from a crowded street with no witnesses what so ever. Even after the killer is revealed it does not make any sense as we had only one scene with culprit beforehand until the end. The film ends very sudden leaving such questions as 'what happens to the other person, what will the parents say after getting back their daughter? Where did the police vanish to in the final act? Why were the police even there to begin with if they did nothing to further the story?' At the centre of all this is Lindsay Lohan. One must not forget that this was the first movie where she is an adult and it shows, the very first scene is LL as a pole dancing stripper whose moments are so sluggish and obviously choreographed that they are about as sexy as a half-melted chocolate bunny rabbit. She is so desperate to prove that she is an adult that there points in the movie where she gawks at shirtless hunky boys which screams "I like boys do you get it?! I like boys." She has sex with Aubrey's boyfriend while Aubrey's mother in downstairs listening in the most cringe worthy scene in the movie. She swears like an angry sailor because she wants to be seen as a grown-up. She wants to prove to us that she is a woman and no longer a good child actress, now she is a mediocre adult actress that killed her career thanks to this movie.I now who killed me is a bad, bad, bad film that thinks its smarter then it thinks it is. It is a graveyard for LL's promising career and is one of the most stupid movies I have seen.

This virtually incomprehensible psycho-thriller isn't quite sure what sort of film it wants to be. One the one hand, it's a mystery flick about a serial killer terrorising a small town by kidnapping young women, torturing them, and then killing them. That's all very well, but then there are bizarre supernatural interludes involving psychic and supernatural links between twins who display stigmata-like wounds when the other's injured. Finally, there's a whole host of unpleasant terror/torture sequences thrown in that aim for the HOSTEL and SAW crowd, depicting graphic hand injury and mutilation that's guaranteed to turn the stomach. In the end, I KNOW WHO KILLED ME doesn't work very well at all.The main problem is the plot. Lindsay Lohan stars as the youthful victim with a huge case of mistaken identity. When she's abducted and later found, albeit missing an arm and a leg, is she really who she claims to be – a stranger? There are a few ways you could interpret this film but unfortunately the frustrating, changed-at-the-last-minute ending muddies the waters still further. I was convinced that Lohan was playing a single character who retreated into her own head during torture, creating a new identity for herself in order to get away from the terror and pain of the present. Had the film followed that route, I would have liked it a lot more, but in the end this mess doesn't know what it wants to be.Lohan is the kind of celebrity I could do without: all you hear in the news is about how she gets arrested, causes trouble on set, etc. I blame the media. I really don't care about actor's lives off-screen; Christian Bale can rant all he wants but it doesn't impinge in the slightest on my enjoyment of a movie. This was the first time I'd seen her acting, and all I could think of was Stacey Slater in the British soap EASTENDERS. She's the spitting image. She's not particularly bad, just not particularly good either, and I could tell she needed more direction and character motivation to keep her going, but she just doesn't get it here.Two actors who've shown fine performances in past films, Julia Ormond and Neal McDonough, are cast as Lohan's parents here, but they're given absolutely nothing to work with and it's a wonder that they bothered turning up on set – a clear case of doing it for the pay cheque. Meanwhile, the snippets of extreme torture are more degrading than disturbing, more senseless than effective, in effect sapping this film's entertainment value away. Throw in an excruciatingly awful sex scene and some quite awful and unerotic pole dancing (Lohan should have followed Rose McGowan's example in PLANET TERROR) and you have a film that's pretty much a failure all round.

IMDb Users in their infinite wisdom have given this title a poor rating. Why? Well seeing that it is actually a very decent movie, one would assume it is solely down to the lead, namely Ms. Lohan. Sit down, watch the movie and cast aside anything you may know about LL's personal life. The story is intriguing, the direction is superb; very atmospheric, and the performances within are sound. IKWKM is well worth a watch for these reasons alone. The story-line moves along at a steady pace and can seem rather confusing but perseverance will pay off. Like a lot of films of this genre the ending falls short from being truly satisfying and loses touch with reality. A little exposition would not have gone amiss. That said, there is adequate closure so the viewer should not feel cheated.

****Will contain spoilers****My friend told me to watch this as I love LeLo a lot. Everyone over reacts about this film there were good points about it like the plot twist and how they set it up also the death of her father. It was just slightly disappointing and had you thinking why for example the colour blue used all the time I had to Google why also the ending was very bad. watch the film give it a go just don't go in thinking that it is the best LeLo film you will ever see. Well known actors in this film and couldn't stop thinking about them like Dave from desperate housewives.
