  "account": "Chris Carlo, owner of one of the first cinemas to show Henry: Portrait of a Killer in 1990, described the film as \"very disturbing, made by very disturbed people\". The film, directed by John McNaughton, was shot four years earlier and had become a classic before it was released in cinemas. Carlo screened it at midnight sessions, where many viewers walked out due to its violence.",
  "summary": "Forty years ago, 'Henry: Portrait of a Killer' was filmed, a wild and visionary chronicle of everyday, empty violence that had already gained cult status through the VHS tape trade before it was released in theaters.",
