zConnection: Killer Joe Review

Connor Beaton writes: "At the opening gala of this year’s Edinburgh International Film Festival, William Friedkin took the stage to commend the festival’s artistic director Chris Fujiwara on his bravery in opening with the controversial Killer Joe, while also begging Gina Gershon’s fiancé in the audience to not punch him in the chest once he had finally seen it. Those two things alone say a lot about what to expect from Killer Joe, maybe more aptly than its official blurb."
