Watch Gacy For Free

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

The acting in this movie is really good.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Gacy tells the story of serial killer John Wayne Gacy, a man whom many believed to be a noble and friendly man. His death toll is approximately 33 young men, who were found buried in his crawl space.Reading up on John Wayne Gacy is more terrifying than watching this half baked attempt at telling this man's story. Out of the three serial killer films I have seen,Ted Bundy, Dahmer and now Gacy, I have to say that this was the least interesting, the least inspired and the most boring. I thought Dahmer was pretty boring, but at least that film tried to get in the mind of the character, Gacy doesn't try to do anything except tell the bare bones story, at least what they decided to read about him, and put it on film. The film makes no real attempt at portraying the man behind the murders. We are introduced to his father abusing him as a child, then apparently he hears voices and kills young men. The torture sequences are tame and the death scenes come off as 'accidents'. You never fully experience the terror this man brought onto the lives of others. The film almost plays out like a comedy, I honestly can't tell if that's what it was trying to be. If so, bad taste, if not, bad filmmaking. The script is bad, full of ear bleeding dialogue. The actors seem to make no real effort here and the movie itself has a lot of inaccuracies. The film begins with the title card saying that names, places and events have been fictionalized to protect those people. This immediately gives you a bad feeling that the filmmakers have taken the story of Johny Wayne Gacy and purposely distorted facts to make an entertaining and emotional film. Fail on both accounts. It's more of a slap in the face to the families of those who went through this. The film seemed more fixated on the rotting stench beneath Gacy's house, rather than a cohesive story. I know what that smell was, not the dead bodies, but this excuse for a film.

Gacy is set in the small Chicago, Illinois town of Des Plaines & starts during 1976 where local businessman John Wayne Gacy Jr. (Mark Holton) lives with his wife Kara (Joleen Lutz) & their two young twin daughter's. Gacy is a well respected member of the Des Plaines community, he holds huge parties, employs various young men & likes to do volunteer work in the community like attending children's parties dressed up as Pogo the Clown. However his respectable reputation seems at odds with the fact that he is a huge liar & brutal sadistic rapist & killer of young men...Co-written & directed by Clive Saunders this true-life biopic of notorious serial killer John Wayne Gacy is one of several Indie produced films that profile some infamous serial killer or other from Dahmer (2002) to the enjoyable Ted Bundy (2002) to the God awful The Hillside Strangler (2004), I can't say Gacy as a film did much for me & even at a short 80 odd minute run time I doubt I would ever want to watch it again. The film starts with a caption that explicitly states several character's & events in the film have been fictionalised so Gacy is maybe not as true to life as some may like, having said that whether it's true to life or not it's still not a very good film. It's rather slow going for the most part & almost all of Gacy's crimes are omitted, at no point in Gacy do we actually see Gacy kill anyone which, considering it's a film about a serial killer, could be thought of as a definite flaw. Gacy is more of a drama than an exploitation flick, I thought the story & character's were alright but a distinct lack of gruesome incident & the total omission of Gacy's crimes meant that Gacy didn't really feel like a biopic of one of the most notorious serial killers ever. Surely those crimes & evil acts were a huge part of him? Surely they are the only reason anyone even knows who he is? How can the film almost totally ignore them?The film looks alright, it's reasonably well made although there's a distinct lack of blood or gore, there's plenty of maggots & cockroaches in Gacy's corpse strewn crawlspace but surely they would have totally overrun the entire house & not just stayed down in the crawlspace. Apparently Gacy is also known as 'The Killer Clown', in reality he was convicted & later executed (he was given 21 consecutive life sentences & 12 death sentences) for the rape & murder of 33 boys & young men (ranging between the ages of 14 & 21) between 1972 & his arrest in 1978 (27 of whom he actually buried in his crawlspace). Rumour has it Gacy's last words before his execution on May 10th in 1994 were 'kiss my ass!'. Bizarrely after his execution Gacy's brain was removed & is now in the possession of Dr. Helen Morrison although I have no idea what she intends to do with it or why she has it.Although set in Chicago the film was actually shot in California, it looks alright & has reasonable production values but it doesn't have much of a 70's feel or vibe to it. The acting is alright, Adam Baldwin has a small role at the start.Gacy is a film about a serial killer that completely misses out all of the killings, as a drama it's alright I suppose & at least it's short but I doubt I would ever want to see it again & by all accounts it's not that accurate.

This movie implies some grisly violence following homosexual activities. And to many a dismay, there is no scenes of rape or even an execution finale. Nevertheless, GACY is worth a gander. The telling of one of America's most prolific serial killers, John Wayne Gacy. The monster kept his secret by being a model citizens in his suburban Chicago neighborhood. He was know to perform as a clown at hospitals and any place he was asked. He also provided work for desperate boys and young men. That was a giveaway leading to his downfall. Who knew of the horrors transpiring in his modest home, where bodies rotted in the crawlspace. Thirty brutal murders were traced back to Gacy with most of the bodies found beneath his house and some in the Des Plains River. It is estimated that Gacy picked up over 2000 men and boys. The cast includes: Charlie Weber, Tom Waldman, Kenneth Swartz, Jeremy Lelliot, Edith Jefferson, Joleen Lutz and Joe Roncetti.

This film is the most boring horror film ever made! Im currently still watching it and he hasn't killed anyone yet 49 Min's in..........I DEMAND BLOOD. First things first the acting in this film is pretty lame by the twins (when you watch it you'll understand) but the guy who plays john Wayne gacy is brilliant seems nice but is a nut job!
