In some ways it plays like a contemporary Western, with Dutcher as the upright county sheriff and local church bishop of a rural Utah town terrorized by a serial killer. Like the marshal of a peaceful frontier community, he first tries to shield his town from the horror, then pulls the good churchgoing citizens into a veritable posse. His cinematic skills may be a bit clumsy and his modern take on frontier justice naïve, but his heart is in the right place. He creates a portrait of family values, community ties, and neighborly caring with an honest, unaffected forthrightness. Ultimately, fear and suspicion is the real snake in Eden. --Sean Axmaker

    Great movie. An honest look into a small predominately Mormon community and how they cope when trouble comes to call.

    I love murder mysteries so this one cuts the chase. The serial killer comes into a peaceful town that has never yet needed to lock their doors. This movie is not only suspenseful but sad too.
