DESCRIPTION
Loosely based on serial killer Henry Lee Lucas, the film follows Henry and his roommate Otis who Henry introduces to murdering randomly selected people. The killing spree depicted in the film starts after Otis' sister Becky comes to stay with them. The people they kill are strangers and in one particularly gruesome attack, kill all three members of a family during a home invasion. Henry lacks compassion in everything he does and isn't the kind to leave behind witnesses - of any kind.

Note : If you haven't seen this ultra-indie serial killer film before, this 4k remaster is an excellent opportunity to remedy that. Michael Rooker's amazing performance alone is worth the price of admission, but be warned, this is the definition of a feel bad movie: It's about sad, broken people moving through gritty, dirty environments doing unspeakable violence to each other, no one is particularly likable, and the ending doesn't really resolve much, it just implies the cycle will continue, and you will probably feel like you need a shower. Still, it's a classic for a reason, just don't expect to be in a good mood after. It's very loosely based on the exploits of real-life serial killers Henry Lee Lucas and Ottis Toole, although their many confessions have now been put into serious doubt (see the Netflix documentary The Confession Killer for an overview).
This 4k remaster looks quite good, although the harsh negative grain could have been managed a bit better, and I personally would like to have seen slightly less crushed blacks. Still, it's representative of the cinematography, which is about as stripped down and bare as the rest of the film, though it's not without its moments. The director's commentary track is information-packed and interesting too, with the usual ruminations on the problems of indie filmmaking.
