User Reviews. Equal parts hilarious, vile, and demented, elevated by top-notch performances across the board led by a magnetic McConaughey. Killer Joe is a roller-coaster of a movie. At first it seems like a dark comedy, then a crime drama plot starts to uncover, and by the end it becomes downright terrifying.
