I never give five stars except for classics, but this film has held up over the years and has become a true classic, in my opinion. Yes, it has some disturbingly violent scenes and it deals with some of the dregs of humanity. And yet, by shining the light in those dark corners where the human cockroaches live, it shows us what it can mean to be human if we are not afforded a decent upbringing or help when mental health issues *begin*, rather than when they get out of hand. It also raises the question of whether some people are just born evil and are beyond redemption.
