The Killer Inside Me
Nobody Sees It Coming
Directed by Michael Winterbottom
Produced by Revolution Films, Indion Entertainment Group
A dark psychological thriller about a charming small-town deputy concealing a sadistic psychopath beneath a respectable facade, built on brutal violence and the horror of hidden depravity.
Deputy Sheriff Lou Ford is a pillar of the community in his small west Texas town, patient and apparently thoughtful. Some people think he is a little slow and maybe boring, but that is the worst they say about him. But then nobody knows about what Lou calls his "sickness": He is a brilliant, but disturbed sociopathic sadist.
