Complete Monster: Greg Harper is a homicide detective who uses his power and influence to cover up the fact that he is actually a pedophilic Serial Killer. Greg kidnapped several young boys and held them captive in his trailer in the woods before killing them and burying their corpse, leaving behind green pocket knives. He had killed six boys with only two of them managing to escape. Greg framed Cole Gordon for his crimes and had the case closed. Years later, upon finding out about his wife's affair, Greg starts kidnapping boys again. Finding his wife's lover in the basement, Greg kills him with a bat. Upon Mindy and Alec coming upon the children Greg has kidnapped who have been locked in makeshift closets. Greg kills Mindy and attempts to kill Alec, intending to frame the two for his crimes afterward.
The sheer amount of horrors of multiple gaslighting elements done by Alec to mess with the family can come off as too realistic, especially considering phrogging is a real life thing.
The idea that Greg, who's supposed to be a loving, if strict, family man is revealed to be a serial kidnapper of children adds some eeriness to the film, especially when he engages of gaslighting of his own toward his wife.
