| Tagline: | Yeah, I killed my Mama... |
| Favourite line: | "If you shoot someone in the head with a .45 every time you kill somebody, it becomes like your fingerprint, see? But if you strangle one, stab another, and one you cut up, and one you don't, then the police don't know what to do. They think you're four different people." |
Henry is a regular guy.
He's a pest controller, and is polite, unassuming, and most people seem to like him. Trouble is, he also happens to be a serial killer, with no guilt or remorse, and a taste for necrophilia, and bestial necrophilia too.
All round, not someone you'd like to go for a beer with.
He's got a friend called Otis, and they live together.
Otis's sister turns up, and Otis really wants to have sex with her.
Otis's sister has a thing for Henry.
It's quite a complicated love triangle.
I have to say this is one of the best 'horror' movies I've ever seen.
Grim, disturbing, relentless, and utterly unflinching, many that have seen this movie claim that it stays with them for a long time afterwards, and I can see why.
Truly one of a kind, a movie every horror buff and general sicko out there should watch.
