Serial Killer

Serial Killer is film #5 and the second by Ryan Cavalline in the Decrepit Crypt of Nightmares box set. This is his debut feature and while having better sound than Demon Slaughter isn't nearly as much fun. It starts with the blood-covered boobs of a woman being filmed, she's wearing a cross though to keep those who feel shame from getting aroused by this image. The film is about a writer writing about serial killers who has a dark secret. It isn't hard to figure out. He erroneously states that serial killers are mostly "White, heterosexual males" which hasn't been true since at least 1990 with a certain other group always punching above their weight since at least 1900 in such sordid deeds. Most likely director Cavalline was unaware as this vile, blood libel has been pushed by the media, Hollywood and television industry for as long as I can remember.

The film mostly involves interviews with serial killers and video footage of bound women who are always topless and sometimes with their crotches on full display. Joel D. Wynkoop has a small but welcome appearance enthusiastically describing his murderous acts. There's some gore here, ample nudity including a woman with very large and very fake breasts having an extended shower scene. This is an attempt to probe into the mind of serial killers and the only way it tries to break the stereotypical mold of the White male serial killer is by including one female killer, White of course. Not awful as far as this sort of thing goes and not a total waste of 72 minutes.
