Gary Heidnik was a worse than Ed Gein that he serve as an inspiritation for Silence of the lambs' 'Buffalo Bill'. This film tries to remain true to the real story of Heidnik, which I was looking forward to. Amazingly, it was a big let down, the script is sloppy so is the plot. If they could have shown how gruesome Heidnik's crimes are, that could have made this film a bit interesting. The twist in the end, comes as an abrupt surprise that it was not established really well. It didnt explain also why they wanted kids. Its better off as a TV movie.

This is what John Cusack career has come to. A recycled thriller that has been overplayed. This one different it has a not so good twist ending.

Police thriller out of the ordinary although it has the typical stuff. We first think Jack the Ripper but it does not add up. Finally an ending not so predictable. The film is flawed but I liked the originality.

Composed of seven or eight other films you've already seen before. And not composed especially well.

Rated: 2/5

Lloyd Dobler and his pals at the Gas 'n Sip would have had a field day mocking a movie like The Factory.

Aiming for a grim tone of genre escapism, The Factory drowns in poor taste and dismal logic, pushing anger and unnerving personal issues on people just looking to be entertained.
