Imagine if Napoleon Dynamite and Junji Ito's Glyceride somehow had a baby - the offspring would be The Greasy Strangler.
In this un-thriller, a thoroughly unattractive father and son navigate their strained relationship while dealing with a rash of murders in their town that have been committed by a not-so-mysterious killer who carries out said murders while coated in a thick layer of sopping, crusted grease. Don't worry about gory effects making you feel ill during this film, those are hilarious. The copious amounts of K-Y jelly and other unidentifiable greasy substances throughout the film do a fine job of squicking the viewer out instead. Despite the stomach-churning visuals, the script, delivery and several sight gags contain enough surreal humor to make this film enjoyable for those who are partial to that kind of thing.
If you have a weak stomach, I do not recommend eating snacks like pizza or anything with a lot of olive oil during the course of this film.
