      Henry: [referring to hitchhiker] Well, she ain't your type.

      Ottis: But she sure is yours. I'll let you have her first.

      Henry: Naw, I ain't too good with girls.

      Ottis: She ain't a girl. She's just juicy white meat.

    Crappy remake
    Antonio Sabato was so bad in this movie. I used to think he was a good actor. I read the book about Henry Lee Lucas in the 80s. As always, the book is always better than the movie. However, the movie from the 80s "Henry Lee Lucas, Portrait of a Serial Killer" was done real well. This one couldn't hold my interest. It was done so badly.
