Narrative misdirection abounds in this film, but Wheatley and Jump are after something more than simple narrative cleverness. This film encompasses supernatural conspiracies and shocking acts of violence, but at its heart it's a story of a man trying to be a good husband and father - and failing comprehensively at both tasks. It's also a story of the larger forces that can govern most people's lives, whether the economic impact of a recession or the strategic deployment of rituals and magic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaking readers through the events of \u003ci\u003eKill List\u003c\/i\u003e minute by minute, this book explores the dense plotting and overlapping threads of this film, the thematic anxieties that plague its characters, and the allusions to heroes and conflicts that bolster its storytelling. \u003ci\u003eKill List\u003c\/i\u003e is both a visceral trip into one man's waking nightmare and a haunting exploration of moral ruin.
