CGiii Comment

Detestable in every way...imaginable.

The writer of this rubbish is as opportunistic as Jason Moss - a young man hellbent on achieving some kind of fame - the only way he can achieve it is...vicariously.

There is much doubt as to the legitimacy of Moss' claims.

The prison denies any of this happened - but, that doesn't sell books.

To actually offer your younger brother up as a human dish is beyond sanity and justification - no matter how you look at it...

The scene when Moss goes into a gay bar and runs out in disgust, vomiting - this is so offensive that you would be forgiven for wishing the worst to happen to this misshapen youth...you will be enraged.

If Moss' portrayal of Moss is accurate - then, he certainly was a fine example of fucked-up youth.

Even if a slither of this story is true, then the American prison, police and parental services have many questions and cases to answer...

To allow provocative pictures of a young man to be sent to a Death Row inmate is beyond the realms of imagination and acceptability.

And, for an inmate, to have unlimited access to a telephone is debatable - let's face it, without these phone calls there would have been no film.

Moss killed himself in 2006...on the 6th of the 6th - did this man do everything for effect?

Watch this with a truck full of salt - it still is contemptuous in every way.

Deeply irresponsible from all concerned - a continued promotion of fabrication.

The(ir) Blurb...

1993. Overachieving college student Jason Moss, fascinated by serial crime, decides to write his criminology class term paper on John Wayne Gacy, who is on death row and scheduled to be executed in six months time. Jason's criminology professor, Mr. Harris, will only allow Jason to write his paper on Gacy if Jason can come up with a fresh angle, as he himself believes the topic of serial killers is already overexposed. After writing Gacy a nondescript letter and receiving a questionnaire from Gacy in return, Jason believes the fresh angle would be truly to get inside Gacy's head, specifically to learn what makes him tick, by presenting himself in subsequent correspondence to Gacy as Gacy's "type", i.e. a vulnerable young man from a dysfunctional family and thus who is possibly at risk. Despite the advice that he needs to watch out for cunning Gacy, Jason is certain he can outsmart the serial criminal at his own game.
