Mind of a Serial Killer's mission is to dissect the mindsets of what drives murder for a better global understanding, while creating a place to honor slain victims.

Flashbulb memories are memories that are affected by our emotional state. Your brain takes a snapshot when the ground shifts under your feet, and that snapshot includes everything—the smell of coffee going cold in your cup holder, the static on the radio, the way your hands suddenly felt too heavy.

Expecting logic from a movie with the line, 'Mommy's got to fight some f*cking sharks' is always going to be a losing proposition. The problems begin at the script level.

"There's no case where those things aren't critical, but with a project like this, there is no 'fix it in post' because it just can't work like that. This is a show that has about 3,000 VFX shots, and we were working with up to five different VFX vendors at times."

But this is an illusion. Neuroscience, physics, and Buddhism all agree: There is nothing fixed about us-not even close.

Glimpse them chatting in a restaurant or posing on Instagram, and you might think they have it all. The pair live in London but often travel, drawing the eyes of other guests, their skin glowing, their limbs artfully at ease. She writes affirmations on hotel stationery; he claims to taste notes of bark and tobacco in his chianti. As Sean Gilbert's dark, observant debut opens in Istanbul, this apparently perfect couple bicker and sweat, for secrets lurk behind their facade and one of them might be murder.

The premise is not the problem: a sexy young woman lures six eligible young men to her family's country pile for a weekend of romance, only to reveal to the men that they are now trapped in a reality-TV-meets-Saw farce in which they will struggle to survive. On paper, The Bachelorette-meets-femme-Jigsaw sounds potentially fun. The biggest problem is that the film never achieves the necessary suspension of disbelief;
