Hangman

CrimeDramaHorrorMysteryThriller98 min

Veteran homicide detective Ray Archer (Al Pacino) is pulled into a string of murders staged around the rules of Hangman, the children’s word game, and he brings in profiler Will Ruiney to read the killer’s pattern. Karl Urban’s Ruiney works the case as each crime scene turns the investigation into another piece of the puzzle. Brittany Snow is journalist Christi Davies, shadowing the detectives as the murders draw wider attention. The hunt moves through crime-scene clues, media scrutiny, and a killer who treats the language of the game as a blueprint for execution.
