The Clovehitch Killer is in theaters and available on VOD and Digital HD on November 16. The contemporary idea of a serial killer is a very American phenomenon. In IFC's new offering The Clovehitch Killer, director Duncan Skiles and writer Christopher Ford dissect it with chilling accuracy. Tyler Burnside (Charlie Plummer) is a young upstanding citizen from a small town in Kentucky that a decade ago was ravaged by a spate of serial killings which were never solved.
