Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer
In Theatre :
September 24, 1986
Director(s): John McNaughton
Michael Rooker plays Henry not as a raving psychopath. Henry likes to kill people, in different ways each time. Henry shares an apartment with Otis. When Otis' sister comes to stay, we see both sides of Henry; the "guy-next-door" and the serial killer. Low budget movie, with some graphic murder scenes.
