This movie was so damn weird. This cop Jessica Shepard caught this serial killer named Cutler and gets promoted. Her foster father John took her in as a child after her cop father snapped and killed her mother, her mothers lovers, and himself. She got a drinking problem and will sleep with anyone she finds in a bar. Like even the skeeviest looking dudes! Some guy Jessica slept with recently ends up found dead in the water and lets the other cops know she slept with him. They like “Weird” and lets her stay on the case. Days later another dude she slept with ends up found dead and they like “The fuck going on, woman?!” Still, she is allowed to stay on the case. They pretty much using her as bait.
Every night Jessica gets home and drinks, looks at photos of her dead father, and passes out. Every. Night. She goes to therapy and feels it is a waste of time. She talks to the guy who tried to kill her about this stuff and he says that she and he are the same. The guys lawyer shows up. Turns out she slept with him at some point, too. She heads to his place and finds him dead in the hot tub with the same cigarette burn on his hand as the other dudes. Oh, I forgot to mention her new partner, Mike. So one night another dude she had sex with shows up (he is a cop and showed up earlier by picking her lock). He is drunk and they start fighting just as she begins to dose off from her drink. She wakes up and his dead ass body is next to her in bed with the cigarette burn! At this point she like “I'm crazy like my daddy!” and gets arrested. Her foster father comes into the cell and is like “You free! They found drugs in your system to knock you out!”
Her foster father John says he thinks her new partner is the killer. Jessica and John head to his place and John laces some wine with the drugs and starts planting evidence and explaining to Jessica how this goes. She knows he is the killer and crazy as fuck and had killed the men her mother slept with and her father because he was in love with her mother and hated the way she threw that stuff around town. He was also the one drugging her. She ends up shooting and killing his crazy ass and has a happy ending with her partner Mike. The end. I would have been like “Go to a doctor” because she had been seriously drugged and all that but she slept with some nasty looking dudes and needs to be looked at professionally.
