Pig Killer arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Pig Killer trusts its audience to sit with discomfort instead of resolving it too quickly. Inspired by the terrifying story of Robert 'Willy' Pickton, the pig farmer cum prolific lady killer whose horrific crimes shocked the world, PIG KILLER graphically depicts the rape, torture, slaughter and dismemberment of forty-nine young women on a pig farm. With his herculean hog, Balthazar, by his side, Willy and his menagerie of colorful cohorts terrorize Vancouver's seedy downtown until his arrest which uncovered a horrific series of brutal Canadian murders. Jake Busey and Ginger Lynn Allen lead a cast doing genuinely serious work here. It hit screens in 2022. The performances in Pig Killer do a lot of work in the silences between the dialogue. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

Pig Killer is what you recommend to people who say they do not really watch much. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. It is a manageable watch, easy to fit into a single evening. Jake Busey's work here is the kind that gets referenced in career retrospectives. It makes everything else feel thin by comparison.

Pig Killer was released in 2022, directed by Chad Ferrin. The full 122-minute film is available to watch now.
