Besides
the
fact
that
this
very
dark
inner
city
thriller
will
have
viewers
expecting
something
along
the
lines
of
Saw
from
the
subject
to
the
reversal
of
its
letters
seeming
to
spell
it
out,
it
does
in
a
way.
For
starters,
the
title
actually
refers
to
an
equation,
W
delta
Z:
WAZ
=
cov
(w.z)
=
bwzvz.
Figured
it
out?
This
is
carved
into
victims’
bodies
found
throughout
the
city
and
is
formulated
by
a
compelled
killer
who
is
taking
care
of
some
very
unsavoury
scumbags
who
get
a
choice
in
their
death
or
survival.
The
detectives
on
the
case
also
seem
to
be
somehow
linked
to
this
inexplicable
madness.
Saying
too
much
would
spoil
the
mystery
and
shocking
surprise.
Shot
in
Belfast
and
UK
locations,
the
film
has
a
deteriorated
American
city
feel.
One
of
the
drawbacks
is
a
propensity
for
low
mumbling
which
often
leaves
some
dialogue
unclear.
By
no
means
a
joyous
film,
but
laden
with
gritty
mood,
brutality
and
the
hope
of
redemption.
