Tenderness of the Wolves

Horror Thriller Cult LGBTQ+

Synopsis

The story of a serial killer who murders young boys so he can serve them as dinner to his circle of fellow cannibals.

MUBI's take

Frequent Rainer Werner Fassbinder collaborator Ulli Lommel directed this stylish portrait of a serial killer. Replete with the several talents from Fassbinder’s cabinet of actors (including Rainer himself!), this unfairly forgotten film is an incisive look into a warped mind in a troubled society.
