his character in slingblade was good, ok, great, but where the hell did he find this guy?

did he really cover his entire body with motor oil and then roll around in the dust?

I wasn't as scared of the sadistic bank robber in Resevoir Dogs--the guy who cut off the cop's ear then doused him with gasoline while dancing to..."stuck in the middle with you"...that was violent, but it was a kind of sociopathology you could understand.

there's just something about Billy Bob in the dessert sun, surrounded by a wasteland--empty husks baking under a relentless inferno--a glare so intense it seemed to glaze everything--but especially Billy Bob-- covered with grease, I mean, basted in it, ... and the slow realization the protagonist gets that this guy isn't stupid: he's sick, like a tube vinyl and horns kinda sick, and you are caught-up in it, something bad, something awfull, something you can't run from, somekind of sick game that you dare not not play out.

i think i was an hour into the film before i realized who it was.

I'll watch anything Billy Bob does. And another thing...what's the deal with lips on his wife? "inflate to 85 psi"?
