She is combative and aggressive, but Lohan plays Dakota as more than the average bad girl.

The holiday movie also stars Ian Harding and Kristin Chenoweth.
The film does not shy away from body horror, painstakingly documenting multiple amputations.
And what makes these torture scenes so effective isLohans guttural performance.
One of the mainstays of the giallo genre is a female lead investigating a series of brutal killings.
Lohans Dakota makes the perfect faux detective.
SilverstonsI Know Who Killed Merelishes the visual language of the giallo.
Instead of the lurid reds and blacks of the club, the torture room is all sterile blues.
The camera trembles to match the fever of anxiety, and the music screeches.
After she fell from stardom, every film Lindsay Lohan appeared in was reviled.
I Know Who Killed Meis available to rent on Amazon.
