The Ugly (1997)
Dr. Karen Schumaker ist eine ehrgeizige und erfolgreiche Psychologin, die sich mit Gerichtsgutachten von geistesgestörten Kriminellen einen Namen gemacht hat. Sie wird von dem Serienkiller Simon Cartwright um Hilfe gebeten. Nach einem fünfjährigen Aufenthalt in einer privaten Anstalt soll sie den Behörden nun seine Heilung attestieren. Gegen den Widerstand des zwielichtigen Krankenhaus-Chefs beginnt Schumaker ihre Interview-Sitzungen mit dem Mörder. Die Suche nach der Wahrheit verwandelt sich dabei in ein tödliches Spiel, bei dem Traum und Realität, Vergangenheit und Gegenwart miteinander verschmelzen.
