A Pointless Disaster
3 February 2024
A fictionalized film about a teenage boy who lives next door to serial killer John Wayne Gacy and becomes suspicious of him.

Seriously, that's it. It's not like he befriends him for a while and then becomes suspicious. It happens in the first 20 minutes. The movie has no where to go. His attempts to convince his friends and family are shot down throughout the film. It's both boring and infuriating.

The acting is amateurish all around. The dialogue is awful. The actor playing Gacy is unconvincing and even more so when he decides to take on the persona of The Joker, complete with an over the top maniacal laugh. Make it to the it end and you'll also get to experience the tonally bizarre Chariots of Fire moment.

If you really need to see a film about John Wayne Gacy, please pass on this and watch one of the already too many films / documentaries that exist.

Rifftrax take notice. This can be your next film.
