Movie about amnesia / memory loss - need help please!?

Can you guys help me out?? I remember watching a movie - where the main actor had amnesia or memory loss. He did not know who he was. I cannot recall the exact plot (as I did not see the entire movie) but this character ran across a couple who had a van and lured (abducted) children. Needless to say when the guy with memory loss ran into this couple at their home....he shot the couple and released a boy who was bound in the closet. The plot goes deeper than this however.

That is all I remember from this movie...I know it is a far stretch, but can anyone help???Movie about amnesia / memory loss - need help please!?
It sounds like it might be "Memento"

Check this out and see if it rings a bell.

You do realize the irony of you not being able to remember a movie about memory loss right? :)Movie about amnesia / memory loss - need help please!?
It could be one of a lot of movies as amnesia (protagonist doesn't know who he/she is) has been used a lot. In reality, that level of amnesia is very rare. Psychogenic amnesia is the scientific term for repressed memories, such as traumatic experiences in childhood that the mind represses because the child does not have the abilities to process or communicate to others what has happened. I would ask your specific question, the name of this movie, in a film forum. Movie buffs are more likely to remember this.
