Certainly one of the best elements of the film. Thanks for commenting!

In particular, the joke about how a homely woman would enjoy being raped made me cringe. One thing I did like about it, though, was how a lot of the suspense was created by having you follow the perpetuator’s desperate attempts to cover his tracks rather than the innocent man on the run. An interesting trick that is done in a lot of heist films but almost never when we are talking about a killer.
