Directed by William R. Pace
Director William R. Pace debuts with the chilling account of a mild-mannered midwesterner who went horribly wrong. The film opens with a lone sniper atop a water tower firing at terrified passers-by. As he commits mass murder, the film flashes back to the events that led up to this drastic act. Billy led a quiet life of desperation, starting with demeaning part-time jobs, a pushy wife, and his bullying father. A sense of doom and tragedy hovers over Billy like a black cloud until one day the weight proves to be too great and he starts his rampage. Charming Billy debuted at the L.A./AFI Film Festival. ~ Jonathan Crow, All Movie Guide

"Because I wrote and directed it!But this intense psychological drama about a man who goes over the edge is an intense and haunting look at what might make a man-next-door one day snap and go on a murdering spree. Shuffling around the different periods of Billy's life in search of answers, the fractured story-telling may be confusing and depressing for some but those who flow along with Billy's downward spiral will be rewarded with a surprisingly empathetic look at one man's dark journe " [More]
