KILLER IMAGE is a strictly ordinary Canadian B-movie thriller - ordinary, that is, aside from another electrifying performance from Michael Ironside as the villain of the piece. This was made during a time when Ironside was pumping out the Bs, playing bad guy after bad guy in the wake of his big screen performance in TOTAL RECALL, and he's unforgettably sinister here. Sadly, the film's main character is quite bland and lacking by comparison, a photographer who finds himself stalked by persons unknown after witnessing a crime. The film offers a little crime, a little horror, some cheesy bonding, and another flustered turn from M. Emmet Walsh, but it's Ironside who's the focus here and he gets plenty of screen time as the ice cold killer. The final scenes in particular offer an acting tour de force from the star.
