    Friday the 13th mainstay Kane Hodder stars as the true-life serial killer whose unspeakable atrocities inspired such classic horror films as Psycho and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in director Michael Feifer's disturbing frightener. Rural Wisconsin was a quiet place until the man they called "The Butcher of Plainfield" began his rapid descent into madness. In the months that followed mysterious murders and a series of shocking grave robberies would make headlines all across the country. With this film, fans can finally find out just what it was that transformed a timid, child-like farmer into one of the most abhorrent figures on the annals of American crime.

    Horrible! Waste of money and time.by Noblecloth

    December 27, 2008: Ed Gein: The Butcher of Plainfield is a horrible movie. The acting was mediocre. The special effects were good. The story, however, stunk. Ed Gein was not portrayed as he really was and the story itself did not follow the actual events of Gein's life. I do not recommend this movie and advise against purchasing it.

    I Also Recommend: Ed Gein.

    August 05, 2008: While this edition of Ed Gein was produced with a higher budget than the one with Steve Railsback, it takes way too much artistic license. In fact, other than the name of the protagonist in the title role, and his habits of murder, grave robbing, and use of his victims' bodies everything else was pure fiction. Especially how the role of Ed Gein was cast. Instead of the scowling hulk in this film, the real life Ed was a dimunative man always with a smile and cheery disposition. This movie, though technically well made, was a complete farce and waste.
