At the hands of his estranged mother's grasp, a serial killer rapes and murders women in Thailand. He meets Sophia at an amusement park in hopes of finding love and a new outlook on life.
In an interview at PopHorror, Banks reflected that Huber proposed the character of Oliver to be like Forrest Gump, Crispin Glover and Patrick Bateman.[1] The film is Moore's feature film debut,[2][3] which he claims was Banks' initial concept.[4]
The film was released July 3, 2018 and distributed by Gravitas Ventures.[5]
The film has received mostly positive reviews from critics with an 80% approval rating at Rotten Tomatoes based on 10 reviews.[6]
A review at Dread Central praised the film, stating it is "not only recommended, but required."[7] Karli Lawson at PopHorror said it is a "disturbing film with plenty of gore."[8] Starburst Magazine called it a "fascinating essay on the everyday life of a serial killer."[2] Film critic Daniel M. Kimmel stated "this is clearly not a movie for everyone, with the nudity, violence, and just plain insanity" scoring it 3 out of 5.[9] Patrick King at Cultured Vultures called it "one of the better horror movies I’ve seen this year."[10] Vicki Woods at Morbidly Beautiful said it is a "film that will bring out serious emotions."[3] Bloody Disgusting claims that the "themes explored in this film [...] have certainly been done before."[5] Roger Moore at Movie Nation scored it 1 out of 4, calling it "torture porn."[11]
