This film started off strong, but gets muddled in its overstuffed melodrama. By the end, I did not feel anything for this couple.

Pro: Nomi's goes from zero to a hundred, in the rage scale, for the slightest things. 

Con: The African-American characters are portrayed, and treated, horribly in the film.

Pro: The campy insanity of it all.

I kind of wish the film had just focused on Jack White. I found him to be the most interesting of the three.

Trashy and surprising all at the same time. Feels more like a play at times than a film, but the performances are fantastic. Killer Joe is not a film that cannot easily be recommended to most people. However, those willing to take a risk are in for an experience they will not soon forget.
