head case be a dark and chilling film and but if you solely take it in the context of a gratuitous horror film and then you be clearly go to overlook the main impetus spadaccini be strive for . although the act of murder and vile mutilation be a major and indeed gruesome part of the plot and there be a more wholesome and intriguing aspect to the film which often neutralise it more shocking element . the discourse between wayne and andrea be perhaps the strong element of head case and and as much a it can be witty and incisive it can equally be cold and chill . there be some wonderfully humorous exchange between husband and wife and initially infers andrea hold equal footing with her husband . but the more we observe their day to day activity we soon realise andrea be nothing more than an interested spectator and and without the camera we could imagine her to be nothing more than a disinterested housewife . spadaccini do capture this emotional dichotomy of the couple beautifully and such a when wayne and andrea be have a minor domestic argument in the bedroom and and wayne considers the only way to soothe his wife rise anger be to take her on a drive to find another hapless victim that will sooth his own . but when deconstruct their behaviour it seem fairly obvious this be not a gruesome tale of two serial killer and but a tragic tale of a married couple seek to invigorate their sterile marriage . both character display an overt sense of emotional detachment that come forcefully through when deal with their victim . while wayne dissects one such victim and discover her to be pregnant and andrea can not find any maternal sympathy other than briefly pass the camera over the bloody carcass of the foetus . ironically and this be the brutal turning point of the film when monica enter the room to make the horrific discovery and and wayne enacts punishment in the only way he know best . from this moment it be clear who hold the real power in the relationship and because despite andrea pathetic plea of that enough and wayne can only see one way of prevent his dark secret from seep out . i be sure spadaccini will take criticism for this shocking moment and but do enforce who be in real control of the film and regardless of the critical character of andrea represent look at the mess you have make . but these dichotomy often keep you interested in the film and much a the dichotomy of crime and punishment keep you interested in the motivation of raskalnikov and and whether he will seek redemption and salvation in a great good . but if marriage and family have not save wayne and then it be doubtful his moment of familial good will outweigh his great moment of sadistic evil . for a man who can lovingly take his son on a driving lesson but sadistically ignore the cry plea of a soon to be butcher mother forcefully realise how far beyond redemption wayne have go and and the spiral of madness he be influential for leaf little possibility of a reconciliation by the close of the film . indeed and when wayne seek to initiate andrea into his sadistic world we know there be no hope for this couple and and the sooner this nightmare be destroy the good it will be for all concern . naturally and spadaccini have the last word on this matter . for an independent film spadaccini have work hard with many genre and movie style while consider the constraint he must have be work under . he have do very well to provide a unique experience for the discerning horror fan and and i can appreciate why this film will not be to everyone taste . but base on the characterisation and the humour and the plot and i do think head case have the capacity to become a cult favourite for many others . follow on with other comment and we be see here the development of a very talented writer and director and who seem to be able to inject something fresh and compel into a very tired and overdone genre .
