Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (DVD)

Released from prison following his mother's murder, Henry (Michael Rooker, JFK) supplements his job as an exterminator with a series of violent, indiscriminate murders. Crazed drug dealer and fellow jailbird Otis (Tom Towles) provides Henry with a willing accomplice in his grisly pursuits but as his depravity escalates and Henry begins to form a tentative bond with Otis' sister Becky (Tracy Arnold) events spriral towards a chilling and violent conclusion.

Based on the harrowing true story of convicted mass-murderer Henry Lee Lucas (portrayed with a dead-eye passivity by a magnetic Rooker). John McNaughton's (Mad Dog and Glory, Wild Things) HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER is one of the most remarkable films in the crowded serial killer genre. Impressively building to a disquieting and horrific climax. The film provides a sobering and nightmarish glimpse into a deranged and damaged mind.

A bona-fida cult classic that as well as being long unavailable is presented here for the first time in its entirety and as the director intended; it's a startling, morally complex and frequently uncompromising work of genuine daring and vision.
