My theory is that he picks out victims that he could pass for, height/weight wise. He also picked people who were not going to missed immediately and had few if any close relationships. If no one realizes the person is dead, then the police wouldn't get involved until the bodies started showing up. By then, 'Martin' would have moved on to another victim.
You'd think the Son of God would be better at hide-and-seek. Everyone seems to find him!
Spoilers!
So he just happens to look enough like an art dealer -- a person who makes his living based on his reputation and who must surely meet people face to face in order to be trusted enough to sell them expensive works of art? And he also just happens to be a skilled artist as well? (And since Costas was a suspect, how come no one even tried to find any pictures of him. Surely, if he runs an art gallery, his picture had to have been taken at some time in his life!) I could understand that the killer might take the place of a drifter or even a reclusive artist or writer (assuming he had the talent), but if anyone had a job of any sort, it would be nearly impossible to constantly be fooling everyone. I thought the movie would be about just how he pulled off his various impersonations, instead we are just told he took over this guy's life and then that one, etc., and we have to just accept it.
Good point.
At the start of the film Martin kills the guy on the bus (character name: Dan/movie script) because later in the rental car Dan mentions his dad/step-dad assaulted him and Dan's mum was mean to him too. Martin knew no one would remember him or miss him because he came from a broken home, so he was the ideal victim.
