Henry: Portrait Of A Serial Killer (1986)
by Alternative Reel Staff

MPAA Rating: X

Director: John McNaughton

Starring: Michael Rooker, Tom Towles

"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. What they really want, what makes their job so much easier, is pattern. What they call a modus operandi. That's Latin. Bet you didn't know any Latin, did you kid?"

Based loosely on the life of convicted murderer Henry Lee Lucas, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer follows roaming serial killer, Henry, and his demented buddy Otis, as they go on a random killing spree. Not a good movie to rent on a first date!

A truly awfull film I would advise you give it a miss. I seen everything from Clockwork Orange, Saw to Lost Highway so I'm wouldn't describe myself as being overly sensitive to arty or horror films and I can usually find something, but with this.. This film is an awfull, twisted ride of negativity. it not only the heart in this film thats missing, its soul, point, and purpose. aaaahhhhhhhh!
