If you can take the assault on your senses it’s worth sticking with for a core of genuine, affecting drama and dollops of sly, quotable humour. Read full review

An ugly and frequently hilarious descent into all things repellent, the debut feature from director Jim Hosking plants itself firmly in a world of filth and shock. Read full review

Hosting's film is not for everyone; it is unforgiving and it is relentless. But for those of a certain disposition, The Greasy Strangler offers a great deal of distressing pleasure. Read full review

The Greasy Strangler is a perverted fever dream that will please few audiences, but those who enjoy it are in for one f*#ked up treat. Read full review

Pure uncompromising yuckiness is what this comedy delivers. A grossout smack in the face. Deplorable. Unspeakable. Often funny. Read full review

While The Greasy Strangler eventually becomes tiresome in its relentless repellence, it’s just so odd it deserves to be lauded for simply existing. Read full review

This was just downright hilarious, very few movies have made me laugh as hard as that. Definitely don't think about it or take it seriously, just watch. If you have a bit of a dark or sick sense of humor you'll love it. "Square" people definitely won't like this.

It's a peculiar movie to describe to someone. It's parts horror movie, dark comedy, and a Tim & Eric skit that never made it to air. Movies like this are great.
