Great Film. This movie is dead on. Everything except the names and location(says it takes place in New Mexico but the true story of Charles Schmid(aka Kit) took place in Tucson, AZ) is true and based on fact. The things that may seem funny or "dark comedy" actually happened. Yes, even the dream sequences that the real life person suffered from. It's all true, and that is why this is such a great film. Bruce Ramsay was the best, great performance, definitely his greatest achievement yet. Also, a little unknown fact: There are deleted scenes out there somewhere. One known of from the picture on the back of the original VHS release is the recreation in the film of the real event of Charles Schmid(Kit)unearthing the skull of his first victim after being arrested. Can you say DVD anyone???????????? Please, this desperately needs to be on DVD!
