10. Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer

Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer
John McNaughton, 1990

Henry (Michael Rooker) kills people. Eventually, he gets his friends to kill people too.

Decent but nothing special. Rooker is very good, but no one else really is. Also, the score doesn't fit the movie and a particular directorial trick (panning across a corpse and playing the sounds of the murder on the soundtrack instead of showing the murder) gets used a few too many times. The ending is pretty good, though, and it's not really bad at all - just kind of blah.

6/10
