A disturbing film, yet good with solid performances and a feeling of authenticity to it. It doesn't feel like it wants to shock on purpose, but with its sadist characters front and center its kind of just sickening in itself. It's interesting how it kept most killings off screen, hearing just a sound bite and the aftermath, it makes the film more palpable in some way. But because of it we also don't see much of Henry's worst side and it almost makes him appear more humane with the monster inside mostly perversely hidden on screen. It's not a film I feel particular fondly about because of its gross depictions, but I can't deny it also has some filmmaking qualities to it at the same time.
