Rooker doesn't just act Henry, he becomes him. When he is on screen, he radiates charisma and you better watch him because if you don't, I do believe he'll kill you. Because Michael Rooker's performance as Henry is probably one of the best, if not the best, performances of a killer I've ever seen.Īdmittedly, Killer is closer to the truth than Psycho and Massacre, but Rooker is captivating as the maniacal Henry. They are remembered for their antagonists, Norman Bates and Leatherface, respectively. However, are Psycho or The Texas Chain Saw Massacre remembered for being loosely based on killer Ed Gein? No. I don't dispute that it was loosely based on Lucas' life. Yes, in addition to a character named Henry, there is one named Otis and another named Becky (presumably named after Lucas' real-life cohort, Otis Toole, and lover, Becky Powell). Yes, the opening scene has a dead female laid out based on a photograph of one of Lucas' victims.

Yes, director John McNaughton got the idea for the movie after watching a "20/20" interview with Henry Lee Lucas. When Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer is mentioned, it is more often than not followed with "loosely based on Henry Lee Lucas." And that is not fair to the movie.

With a whole household full of whack jobs, things are guaranteed to be interesting. Even more odd is when she asks Henry directly, and he confirms it, she seems understanding. When Becky finds out from Otis that Henry killed his own mother, she seems a bit surprised, but takes it in stride. However, Otis’ sister Becky moves in with the duo and there is a quick attraction between her and Henry. Otis quickly takes to his new hobby, and things get really disturbing when they add a video camera to the mix and start filming their extracurricular activities.

It isn’t long into the movie when Henry shows Otis, his roommate and former cellmate, how to kill a person - justifying killing by claiming it’s always necessary. His preference, like most serial killers, is women, but Henry will take care of anyone who crosses him, because he is a not a man to be fucked with. But beneath that surface, there is a man filled with rage and a desire to kill.

PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.On the surface, Henry (Michael Rooker – Days of Thunder, Mississippi Burning) is polite and, at times, even friendly.
