Drifter: Henry Lee Lucas Reviews:
Drifter: Henry Lee Lucas 
2009-12-03 - This film really shows the true nature of Henry Lucas and his pathological lying to the press and police. Sabato's performance is very disturbing and possibly one of his best. This film won best director, actor and actress at the Beverly Hills Film Festival Awards and is well worth the view.
work into it
2009-10-20 - could have put a more work into it,
thought one of the reporters was pretty.
Not as bad as some reviewers make it out to be 
2009-10-04 - Watched this movie last night and thought it was okay. Not much gore, not as violent as I imagined it might be. In both Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, and this rendition, I was disappointed that the writers pandered to the mainstream and left out the glaring fact that Ottis was homosexual and Henry & him were "lovers" of sorts in the true story.
had to see if this was as bad as the cover ! 
2009-09-09 - it was worse !
ill give sabato jr credit for trying a new role but he was miserable as was everyone else. i guess the wardrobe person did an ok job. no need to go into a speil about the story. its about henry lee lucas, infamous ''serial'' killer. sabatos future is now this generations lorenzo lamas. when will i stop giving into movies about real life maniacs ?!?!?!?!
Laughable production quality ***possible spoilers*** 
2009-09-07 - There were so many flaws in Drifter: Henry Lee Lucas, I don't know where to start ...
TV Movie of the Week quality.
Numerous gaffes.
Twice, one of the actors looked at the camera. In any real movie, the editor/director would have re-shot the scene.
When the dead hitchhiker is getting raped on the couch, you can see the camerman's shadow.
Henry's scar on his eye keeps changing between scenes.
When the doctor is preparing to give Henry shock treatment, he has the nurse take out Henry's glass eye. While he's shocking Henry and questioning him afterward, it is obvious that the eye is still in place, the actor is just looking upward to make it more ominous.
The actors' "accents" were too funny. I'm guessing the director told them to "talk real slow, cuz that's how dumb people talk."
Overall, fairly laughable. Unfortunately, not funny enough to be a cult classic.
