Antibodies (2005)

In the dark underbelly of crime, Gabriel Engel, a notorious serial killer, long sought after by the law, is finally ensnared in a dramatic police operation. This high-stakes capture leaves the city's streets pulsating with fear and anticipation. From the tranquility of his small town, a local lawman, Michael Martens, steps into the bustling metropolis arena. Driven by a strong sense of justice and a stubborn will to close a brutal murder case haunting his town, Martens embarks on a perilous journey to interrogate the confounding Engel. The eerie parallels between the unresolved case and Engel's chilling modus operandi offer Martens a glimmer of hope; a confession from Engel might be the key to unlock the mystery that has long plagued his peaceful town. As Martens plunges deeper into the shadowy labyrinth of Engel's mind, the encounter stirs an unexpected whirlwind. The violent collision of their disparate characters not only shakes Martens' core convictions but also unveils a dormant menace within him. Transformed into a dangerous adversary, Martens becomes the very threat he had once sworn to protect his town from, casting a grim shadow over those closest to him. Antibodies is a chilling exploration of the thin line between good and evil, a captivating thriller where the hunter becomes the hunted, and the protector turns predator.
