This isnt the sort of horror I like. It was very realistic, graphic, and suspenseful. The actor did a good job of capturing what I think someone like that would be like. It was disturbing but I kept watching to see how it would end. I wouldnt watch it again.

I wasn't to sure , what I was going to expect by this movie, it had a surreal plot to it.The plot played out really well, we get to know why and how he as become so insane, due to his childhood.The movie was really short, which is good a thing , as it did not get boring at all.The last scene, really gave the creeps, I found the extras a little creepy as they all were keeping a eye on him. in the dinner scene.And why would they follow him to the car, to see him feed a dog?The acting from the main lead was outstanding, he really did look insane.Short movie with surreal plot! and some things that didn't make sense to me. 6 out of 10 (only for the acting)

People who watch and recommend garbage like this show how screwy and perverse their psyche is.When I was much younger I loved horror movies and was very cognizant that they were make-believe and, of course, the special effects back then were quite poor compared to today and they rarely were as gross as today.Just as, physically, we are what we eat, so it is with our souls. It's not good for our hearts and our minds to see, hear and meditate on vile, unclean and wicked enactments. It's defiling to the soul and spirit, just as wallowing in excrement or having sex with your neighbor's wife is defiling to the body.Consider if you knew the future and said to your child, "Hey, there's going to be rape and murder this afternoon about four blocks from here. Let's go and watch it." Well, watching a movie of the same thing is very much like watching the real thing.I don't know if you are aware of it but before Ted Bundy was executed, he requested that James Dobson interview him. In Dr. Dobson's videotaped interview, Bundy told why he requested Dr. Dobson and he alone to conduct the interview.He said it was because his murderous bondage was fed and exacerbated by watching violent pornography and if he had let any other representative of the media do the interview, he was sure they would not tell the truth about what he had to say.You should consider that... and next time you want to watch someone torture, rape, sodomize and murder people, find Ted Bundy's interview and watch the confession of a man who fulfilled his fantasies.

This is a remarkable Austrian serial killer movie, that reminds me a little of "HENRY". A man is released from prison after ten years for killing an old woman, and they think he has been rehabilitated. WRONG!!! Immediately, he searches out a home that no one seems to be there, and breaks in through a window. This movie has very little dialogue, what we hear is his own narration through his psychotic thoughts. He has a plan, where he intends to kill whoever owns the home, because that's what he does. Very very creepy, and with a Klaus Schulze soundtrack that builds the tension very very nicely. When the Mother and Daughter finally arrive at their home, he wastes little time in literally scaring the ill Mother to death, and then eventually very brutally killing the pretty daughter and then having sex with her corpse. This is after he drowns the invalid Son in the bathtub. But he is angry that all this killing did not go according to his plan, so he decides what he needs to do, is gather up all the bodies, put them in the family's car trunk, and go on another killing spree, scarring the next victims with the corpses in the trunk. This is serious stuff folks, there is no fooling around with this movie, it actually made me tense with the mounting tension created by his mental narration, the amazing music, and following his manic actions he trying to carry out an insane plan. This is a psycho thriller that has few equals in the genre, and I simply was blown away by it. The actor playing the psychopath is amazingly convincing, and I have to admit, this movie had an impact on me, I was somewhat shaken by watching it. It's not that gory, it's just flat out disturbing as hell, and one I won't soon forget. It's one of the best of it's genre I have ever seen. Brutal as hell, and convincing as hell, and what a hell of a soundtrack. Magnificent movie, catch it if you can.
