The activities of rampaging, indiscriminate serial killer Ben are recorded by a willingly complicit documentary team, who eventually become his accomplices and active participants. Ben provides casual commentary on the nature of his work and arbitrary musings on topics of interest to him, such as music or the conditions of low-income housing, and even goes so far as to introduce the documentary crew to his family. But their reckless indulgences soon get the better of them.

A biting satire about the media and their role in promoting violence. Brutally graphic and violent, this won't be suitable for everybody.

A really interesting look at proximal psychosis. Watching the camera crew get swept into the serial killer mindset is fascinating.

Great mockumentary. Funny, violent, dark, and always entertaining. Great acting by all involved and a fantastic story.

Thought provoking. Most realistic portrayal of violence I have ever seen. Made me uncomfortable even.

A complex film about a charming protagonist who commits various escalating acts of horror. One is not quite sure how to feel by the end.
