I Know Who Killed Me- review




I Know Who Killed Me (2007) is an unusual thriller of identity crisis following a tragic experience. Directed by Chris Siverston and written by Jeff Hammond, the story opens with the kidnapping of Aubrey Fleming (Lindsay Lohan) a student of a high school in New Salem, after the brutal killing of a fellow student by a serial killer. A couple of weeks later when she is found mutilated in the similar way as her schoolmate, the FBI turn up at the hospital only to discover that the girl on the bed claims to be the stripper Dakota Moss and not Aubrey Fleming. The movie tries to depict the reactions of a traumatized teenager but ends up in completely confusing its audience about the identity of the lead actress. Is she Aubrey Fleming: Daniel Fleming’s daughter? Is she Dakota Moss: one of the characters in Aubrey’s fantastic story? Or is she Aubrey’s long lost twin, whose existence is known only by their father? The story has many loose ends and though it manages to grip the audience’s attention, the end is disappointing. The acting of Lindsay Lohan and Neal McDonough, who plays her father, are the only plus points in the movie.
