The Watcher
2000
Burned out after failing to bust a sadistic serial killer in Los Angeles, FBI agent Joel Campbell (James Spader) retires to Chicago. But the killer (Keanu Reeves) refuses to leave the lawman alone, and begins furnishing new clues designed to drive him mad. To motivate Campbell to rejoin the cat-and-mouse chase, the killer sends photos of his next victims. But it's up to Campbell to try to save them first.

Mystery, Thriller
Paced as a thriller, but there isn't much compelling or even creepy about Keanu Reeves as a serial killer. Mainly linear, it lacks the tension necessary for good suspense.
