1st time I REALLY paid attention to it and I am awe-struck! I did not know that Friedkin directed this cult ....The exquisite manipulation of character motivations as it became embedded into an over-arching deconsctruction of moral values ....This is a masterpiece of dark humour dripping in satire at the genius level only matched by the total magnificence of the ensemble acting!!!

William Friedkin serves up Trailer Trash Neo-Noir with a side order of Fried Chicken.

Killer Joe is directed by William Friedkin and adapted to screenplay by Tracy Letts from his own play of the same name. It stars Matthew McConaughey, Emile Hirsch, Juno Temple, Thomas Haden Church and Gina Gers More

_Killer Joe_ had the making to be a genuinely great film, but the quality control in the writing room limits the results.

So much of the story works for me on a thematic and plot progression basis. I enjoyed the premise and the stakes that this movie provides, but writer Tracy Letts wrote this li More
