ALl I can remember of this movie is that is has a kid in it that plays chess, and there's a serial killer murdering people and it has something to do with chess moves, I think Donald Sutherland is in it but I for the life of me can't recall the name,. :(

Knight Moves (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104627/) has a chess obsessed serial killer, but there`s no kid (as far as I remember) and Sutherland isn`t in it.

You know what thst is it in fact, and your right he's no in it, but the kid are flash back the main character has a few times in the movie I think,but that I am about 99% sure is what I was looking for thanks man
