Mercy (2000)

Little of Mercy
Is it a thriller or a drama or an action movie? Well the truth is that it is not one thing but a bit of a mixed salad. However if you looking for action with a big bang then read no further. If you looking for a thriller which incorporates ingredients of deep and dark psyche of the human mind then this is for you. Ellen Barkin plays a cop investigating a serial killer who is preoccupied with sadomasochism, sex and ultimately murder. Ellen has her own demons to conquer from realising her sexuality to performing her duties as a cop on the heels of a serial killer. Can be a bit long for some, but if you into psych thrillers then you won't mind the length. The end has a major twist to it. Highly recommended for those wanting a deeper and darker psych thriller.

Cool movie but paints a very poor image of BDSM
I enjoyed this movie but was rather irritated with the way it painted all kinky folk as emotionally damaged and sexually abused. That's a very negative stereotype and I hate seeing it perpetuated. Other than that, I liked it. The plot twists and turns nicely and there are some very hot scenes in it. There's some interesting eye candy in the cinematography that I enjoyed also (primarily in the dream scenes). If you're thinking of buying this movie because you're interested in BDSM a better choice might be Secretary, but if you're looking for a fun thriller with a twist this is your ticket. :)

One of the best lesbian movies
I totally enjoyed this movie. I saw it when I was 15 years old and I never forgot the plot, however, I did forget the name. Few years later, my friend told me she had a 'great' movie at home. So we watched it and boom!!!, here it was Mercy! I immediatly bought it and keep loving it.
