Brand new 4K restoration from the original camera negatives, approved by John McNaughton.As the bodies mount up, Otis finds himself inducted into Henry’s dark secret world, but when Otis’ sister Becky (Tracy Arnold) moves in, herself fleeing from an uncomfortable domestic situation, it quickly becomes apparent that two’s company, but three’s a crowd.īased on the horrific true-life crimes of Henry Lee Lucas, the harrowing controversial debut feature from John McNaughton ( Mad Dog and Glory, Wild Things) returns to the UK in its best-looking release ever, in a new 4K restoration supervised by the director himself. Hiding behind his unremarkable employment as a pest exterminator, Henry leads a double life, prowling the streets by night on a brutal and apparently motiveless killing spree. Recently released from prison, the nomadic Henry (Michael Rooker, Guardians of the Galaxy, The Walking Dead) finds temporary abode in the rundown Chicago lodgings of a former jail acquaintance and small-time drug dealer, Otis (Tom Towles). At dawn Henry walks out with a big suitcase which he then leaves on the edge of the highway with its macabre contents - Becky's corpse.Widely heralded as one of the greatest serial killer movies of all time, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer presents a bleak and unflinching dive into the mind of a mass murderer. Planning to run away and live together on Henry's sister's farm, they stop to spend the night at a motel. When Otis - excited and drunk - attempts to rape his sister, Henry intervenes, fights with him, kills him, dismembers his body and, helped by Becky, throws the remains into the river. He also begins to kill, recording the violent scenes with a camera stolen from a fence murdered by Henry. Meanwhile Otis, who one night witnesses Henry killing two prostitutes, starts liking these murders. She is a dancer but she becomes a hairdresser and soon she falls in love with silent Henry. Her husband is in prison and she has left mother and daughter to live in Chicago and look for work. Henry is a sturdy-looking quiet youngster living with Otis, his former jail mate. He disseminates bodies throughout the city, stabbing or strangling random women but also murdering innocent bikers for fun. For this reasons he becomes a sexual criminal. Plot – Teenage Henry kills his mother who often made him wear woman's clothes and look at her while having sex.
