Critics Consensus: Violent, darkly comic, and full of strong performances, Killer Joe proves William Friedkin hasn't lost his touch, even if the plot may be too lurid for some.

Sean Axmaker

It’s brutal, violent, and at times savagely funny, a portrait of depraved lives so far over the edge of moral equilibrium they seem to have slipped into their own universe.

In Killer Joe, director William Friedkin reaches magnificent new lows as he descends into playwright Tracy Letts' world of southern-fried depravity, stupidity, sexuality, and possibly (almost certainly) madness.

Killer Joe is pitched squarely as a rotted black comedy of errors, a cavalcade of one disaster after another from a bunch of fools tripping over themselves in the pursuit of the one thing that drives America: Greed

You won't see anything else like it this year.

The great William Friedkin's Killer Joe is raw and visceral. It's not a pleasant watch by any stretch of the imagination- but it is good. Very good.
