So this movie is based on John Wayne Gacy and his killing spree of young boys and how he buried most of them under his house...

There is so much to Gacy and it wasn't touched on in this film. He had an interesting story and none of that was told here, just you set for 90 minutes watching a movie and learning what you read on the back of the box.

It was a straight to video flop and with every good reason. The director is a nobody and he did a horrible job. It was so basic and felt just like a Lifetime movie of the week. The lighting was god awful. Apparently they had no budget on this one.

I was happy to see Adam Baldwin had a small role at the start of the film. I have always been a fan of him. The guy portraying Gacy, Mark Holton, is not a familiar face and I was happy of that, no one on this film was a big actor or familiar face, and I love that in movies. I kept thinking I had seen Holton somewhere and a friend said he was in Pee-wee's Big Adventure and I was like "oh yeah". I just now read on here he was in the Teen Wolf movies, Naked Gun and Leprechaun all of which I have seen numerous times, but had forgotten him, so yea he's easily forgotten.

Brian Dennehy portrayed Gacy in a movie called To Catch A Killer, I would love to see that one, but this being my second viewing of this film, I can say I hope I never have to set through it again.

It gives some insight into Gacy, but its not too in depth. I couldn't recommend it. 2 out of 10 stars.
