In the start of the movie, the audience can see that Elena has had SEVERAL victims. She only kills men as she is looking for the best lover for her and is only attracted to men. Unluckily, if she comes across a man who isn't "perfect" for her, which had been every man up until Jackson (the victim for this film), she kills them. She is a very picky woman when it comes to her dating life which means if she finds any imperfection, no matter how little or big, she gets rid of them by getting rid of the person entirely. She's used to only encountering men who she's incompatible with yet she still tries.
Finally, in this film, she finds a man compatible to her. You may be asking, "Why would she be trying to kill him if she thinks they're compatible?" Well, she doesn't find him to be compatible until near the end of the movie. This doesn't mean that at first, she saw an imperfection and decided she was going to kill him but then that imperfection suddenly disappears and she likes him now. Nope. The situation is that once Elena finds out Jackson is a serial killer as well, she falls in love with the thought of finding a man who is exactly like her. This shows a shift from being distrustful and strict to finally becoming calmer and laid back. Elena starts attempting to kill him at first when she finds Jackson snooping around in her room when he said he was going to go to the bathroom. He's in there because... well, he's a serial killer and he was getting to know more about his victim before killing her and while doing so, stumbles upon bloody clothes in her hamper. Whil`ding him invading her privacy does count as an imperfection to Elena, she mostly wants to kill him because he found out her secret. After she ends her hunt after him and the both of them have a normal dinner while covered in blood, messy hair, sweaty faces, and wrinkled clothing, they both realize how much they like each other and this represents a complete change in Elena's on-guard demeanor to a more relaxed and comfortable one now that she has stopped her search for a perfect man and started her journey in a relationship with her perfect man.
