Please help me find this movie!
I saw it years ago – loved it but cannot remember the name or find it anywhere online.
So I’m pretty sure it’s from the early to mid 2000’s and that it’s an independent movie that has possibly played on IFC. What I remember about the story is that it’s about a loner serial killer (guy in his 20’s with short brown hair) who meets this girl who works at the coffee shop he goes to. He originally intends for her to be a victim of his but then falls in love with her. I remember that she has a cute little apartment with string lights – like white Christmas lights hanging up in it.
I am also almost positive that it ends with him either telling her he’s a killer or her somehow finding out and she is okay with it and even takes part in the killings. Lastly I’m pretty sure there’s a scene towards the end that takes place at night where they’re standing next to a shutdown train on train tracks.
Hope that’s enough information and thank you to anyone who helps figure this one out.

It’s got to be Believe Me: The abduction of Lisa McVey
Movie Mr Right. I was just looking for this movie, and think it might be the same one you are looking for.
Ex-CIA agent and ex-mercenary Francis Munch (Rockwell) kills those who try to hire him. On his way from such a kill, a team including Espinoza (Da Silva) tries to kill Munch; his ex-partner and trainer, Ed Hopper (Roth), reconsiders his involvement immediately beforehand, and remains only to listen and confirm his assessment of the situation.
Martha McKay (Kendrick) is asked out by Munch and they are smitten. Munch dodges an assassination attempt by Espinoza, and they spend the night chastely. The next evening, they meet for dinner, where Munch reluctantly kills Espinoza when attacked. Over hot chocolate, he shows Martha his belief that underlying all physical objects lies a current that can be precognitively anticipated, and both of them have it. Munch throws a kitchen knife high in the air and catches it safely as it falls between them. Martha freaks out until he throws a knife at her, which she catches by the blade without being cut. They then have an intimate night.
“Von” Cartigan (Ransone) is the sole survivor of a prior spree in which Munch killed the Pirrello heroin syndicate, and, as Munch shoots those who hire him, with his partner Johnny Moon (Eklund) tries to set up his brother Richard (Mount) to be killed. Instead, a middleman is sent who Munch kills in front of Martha, frightening her enough to ask him to give her some space. Richard sends Moon, Von, and 10 other hitmen to Martha’s, including a gunman named Steve (RZA).
Hopper meets Martha at her apartment, but is subdued by Francis, his former partner. Steve gets Munch with buckshot. From cover, Munch shoots one of Von’s hired men dead, talks another into leaving, and kneecaps the remainder. Having previously shown Von mercy at the Pirrello job, and, getting ready to kill Von, he’s again hit by Steve (whom he respects for his skills) with a bat while Moon grabs Martha. Hopper arrives and shoots the kneecapped men dead, but while his back is turned, Francis escapes.
Richard enlists Von and Johnny to stay and defend their house, defeating their plans to rule the family as sole survivors; in frustration, they abuse Martha in response to her mockery. After kicking her against a wall, she says she will kill them if Munch doesn’t, as she now feels “motivated.” Outside, Munch takes Steve by surprise; chatting, Steve tells him how many are inside, and they share gummy bears. Munch distracts Von and Richard’s bodyguards and shoots them when threatened, but declines to shoot either Von or Richard themselves. In frustration, Von begins monologuing about his desire to kill his brother. When Munch leaves, both leap for the gun, but Von successfully kills Richard. In another room, Richard’s consigliere Bruce (Kaine) confronts Munch but is disarmed. Bruce mistakenly arms a grenade, and Munch helps him disarm it without them both dying.
Munch rescues and begins to escape with Martha, but is shot with beanbag ammunition by Hopper. Moon grabs Martha and tells her he puts more dangerous people off their game by killing their weaker loved ones. Her precognitive combat abilities awaken, and she dodges Moon’s attacks, then strikes him with his own knife and kills him with a statue. While escaping, she disarms and shoots Von with his own gun.
Hopper and Munch confront each other, Hopper handcuffs himself to Munch, intending to “re-program” Munch into a killer. Munch shoots the handcuffs off. Before Hopper can shoot Munch in the back, Steve shoots Hopper dead, and is ecstatic to learn of Hopper’s $5 million bounty. Munch meets Martha at the entrance, notes her dilated pupils, and asks Steve to help him get them to the hospital.
Two months later, two military-style teams are pursuing Munch and Martha as they visit different countries for Martha’s paleological interests; Munch shows a sign to the sniper asking “where’s the girl?” as the scene cuts to Martha, who has snuck up to shoot the sniper
