Description

One of the most harrowing American horror films of the 20th century, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer returns in an immaculate presentation that cements this shocking and thought-provoking plunge into a nightmare of the human soul as a true cinema landmark. Henry, a psychopathic drifter who has left a trail of dead bodies in his wake, settles for a while at the dilapidated Chicago apartment of sleazy ex-prison buddy Otis. Into this toxic environment comes Otis’s younger sister Becky, who’s fleeing an abusive marriage and looking for a place to stay. Deflecting her brother’s incestuous advances, Becky finds herself attracted to Henry and sees him as a potential lover and herself as his possible savior. What she doesn’t realize is that Otis and Henry are now killing together, murdering for kicks and sinking to ever more terrifying depths of depravity. As Becky tries to get her life back on track, she looks to Henry for a way out. But is redemption even possible for a man like Henry? Sure to send shivers of mortal dread through a whole new generation of filmgoers, this amazing new transfer puts Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer firmly back into the vanguard of contemporary cinematic horror.

    One of the most underrated films of all-time and one of the most prolific in both it’s undertones and themes that helped pave the way for a new era of horror and crime drama with it’s “Scarier-Than-Fiction” narrative. I would place it in the Top 10 Best Films I’ve Ever Seen. Maybe even Top 5. It really is THAT good.
  • Awesome movie but Apple tweaked it

    A very harrowing but brilliant movie. Truly it has no fat and is as minimalistic as it gets. However, the scene that gets under your skin is not original and looses it horrific impact. Spoiler alert: There is a scene where you are unaware it is on a tv being videotaped until the camera pulls back. It may be the most horrific scene in any movie. However it is missing here clearly showing it is a recording at the beginning. What a real shame.
  • Great

    Rented this from the video store years ago. I found it nightmarish, disturbing, cruelly realistic. It's frightening when you realize someone could just kill people randomly for years and remain anonymous and free to keep killing if he looked outwardly normal. If you are at all squeamish, remember you can't unsee this...
