Review Summary and Plot Commentary about The Crawl Space
This is a movie based on a true story about a disturbed man named John Wayne Gacy, Jr. Gacy was a prominent figure in society and was a loving father and husband, or so it seemed. He raped, tortured and killed many boys and men and hid the bodies in the crawlspace of his home. After a while, the stench of the dead peaple rose from the crawlspace and into the neiborhood prompting complaints from neighbors. His wife finds a gay magazine with a pair of handcuffs (kinky) in the garage. After his wife leaves, he goes crazy and on his final killing spree.
--Dashaun Montanez, Resident Scholar
