Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer 2: Mask of Sanity ★ Henry 2: Portrait of a Serial Killer 1996 (R)

Michael Rooker gave a chilling performance as serial killer Henry in part 1 but Giuntoli is merely dull. A sullen drifter, Henry manages to get a job and fellow worker Kai (Komenich) invites him to crash at his place. Turns out Kai is a part-time arsonist for hire and Henry helps him out—also introducing Kai to the pleasures of casual murder. The gore is actually limited to a few bloody scenes (usually more is heard than shown) but the whole project is boring. 84m/C VHS, DVD . Neil Giuntoli, Rich Komenich, Kate Walsh, Carri Levinson, Penelope Milford; D: Chuck Parello; W: Chuck Parello; C: Michael Kohnhurst; M: Robert F. McNaughton.
