  • Complete Monster: Charles Holcombe a callous serial killer with over 60 victims to his name, is dedicated to wiping out the homeless, junkies, prostitutes, and vagrants, viewing them as subhuman filth who are worthless to society. Using a meatpacking plant he inherited from his late father, Holcombe re-outfitted it into a brutal maze-like Death Course where he forces his victims to play a sadistic game, where they must escape before sunrise or die horribly. What follows is his victims being put through horrible physical agony, including broken glass, gas, and a Doberman. The whole time, Holcombe torments his victims with footage of him dissecting his previous victims alive to let them know what to expect if they fail. When his latest victim, a prostitute named Maggie, successfully completes the course, Holcombe reveals that he had no intention of ever letting her escape and knocks her out with a spray of gas before hauling her off to slaughter. Ruthlessly obsessed with his mission to the end, Holcombe's final moments before being gunned down are him attempting to finish off Maggie while screaming "Let me do my job!"
