Charlie Reese (Eric Rodrigue) is an alcoholic ex-cop who has been
dismissed from the force dishonourably and is pretty much down on his luck
when he's offered a lot of money to find a girl, Carrie (Hannah Valadez),
because despite his flaws, there's one thing Charlie's really good at, and
that's finding people. Charlie soon picks up a trail, too, that leads to a
supressed story about some prostitutes that have gone missing, which gives
Charlie and excuse to get his ex-turned-prostitute Roxy (Tania Monroy) off
the street to help him in the case. For a time, everything looks really
good, as Charlie and Roxy managed to put their finger on the right
suspect, Walter (Alex Heatherley), a doctor by day who, together with his
partner, Hunny (L.G. Koruptore), a big invariably masked woman, has taken
to kidnapping beautiful women and then torturing, killing and dismembering
them in front of a camera - though these are facts that Charlie and Roxy
don't know in all detail yet when they have a massive fall-out and then
Roxy somehow gets herself abducted by Walter. Once Charlie realizes that,
he charges to the rescue - but might have walked right into a well-set
trap ... Basically, Deviant Behavior is an enjoyably
mean movie that manages to include enough cruelty and violence in all the
right places to keep one on the edge of one's seat while at the same time
relying suitably heavily on suspense to tell it's rather engaging story
carried by likeably flawed characters. True, the mean bits of the movie
aren't for everyone, but if a bit of gruesomeness is something you enjoy
with a proper story attached, then this one is definitely for you.
