because of the warning of gratuitous violence with the provision that no one under 17 will be admit and i find myself stumble into this movie on the classic television showbiz site . it concern a struggle painter ( director abel ferrara ) who live with two woman one his lover who leave her husband and another a druggie who the other woman lover and hang with a punk band that just move in another apartment room a he try to fight his demon by drill hole into many homeless men that live below . there some detail i have leave out but while there some interesting development later in the narrative and especially at the end and it mostly pretty repetitious concern the killing though there also a sexy shower scene with the female roommate and some pretty entertaining guitar lick during the punk band scene as well a one amuse scene at a bus stop with one derelict constantly bother other patron . know this director later make the cult movie ms. 45 and which i have yet to watch and i approach this movie with some interest but i would only recommend the driller killer if youre interested in anything mr. ferrara make and not if you want to watch a slasher flick ( though those drill scene can be fascinate to watch ) .
