5 Stars - Disturbingly good
A family of trailer trash Texans hire Killer Joe to kill their mother for the life insurance policy on her. As they can't pay in advance Joe demands the young daughter as a retainer.
This film is disturbing on many levels, and it is excellent. Matthew McConaughey gives one of the best performances of his career as Killer Joe, he was utterly terrifying and weirdly charismatic capturing everything the character should have been and more.
The ensemble cast is equally brilliant, all of them working to make one of the best films of the year.
I don't want to give anything about this film away, but I will just say you'll never forget the KFC scene... no matter how hard you try.
