Tony (I) (2009)
7/10
sad and lonely serial killer
26 April 2020
Tony is a sad and lonely serial killer who appears to have listened a bit too closely to the message Jeffrey Dahmer was disseminating, about killing em to keep em near. He is that which nature abhors - a vacuum. No wife, no children, no job - if it weren't for his apartment he inhabits and pays rent for you wouldn't even know he was there. This is a slow, close look at a slow sad life. We don't get too close, not that it would be desirable once we see the people down there in the dregs for him to interact with. Aside from the junkies and hos that people his world, even his employment agent and potential boss are scum. The only bright spot I noticed was his neighbor lady come to borrow a band-aid. Only she saw Tony. Only she talked to him and listened back. It's enough to make you cry until he kills another of the scum in his life. Then it is to laugh. Kidding aside, I found this movie to be good to great, and emotionally full.
