Publisher's Synopsis

Triple bill of violent killer films. In 'Man Bites Dog' (1992), multiple killer Ben Patard (Benoit Poelvoorde) shows off his skills to documentary maker Remy (Remi Belvaux) and his team. The filmmakers gradually fall under Ben's spell and become entirely caught up in the brutal facts of his life, changing from voyeurs to accomplices. In 'H6' (2005), Antonio Frau (Fernando Acaso) has just served 25 years in prison for killing his girlfriend in the heat of a dispute and, as it quickly becomes plain, he's a rather poor advert for rehabilitation. While inside, Antonio has inherited a decrepit brothel from a dead relative which he soon puts to good use as his own comfortable domicile - even buying a new freezer. Through an Internet dating service, he meets and marries a lovely woman and is soon living the straight life, renovating the bordello to its former muted glory. However, the formerly felonious hotelier, it appears, is also running a little sideline in redemption in room H6. Pretty soon the neighbourhood is a terrifying place for the women who walk its streets. Finally, in 'Tattoo' (2002), after being discovered at an illegal rave in possession of drugs during a police raid, Marc (August Diehl), a newly-graduated young police officer, is blackmailed by veteran cop Detective Minks (Christian Redl) into joining the homicide team - who are working on a case of a serial killer who brutally murders people and skins them for their tattoos. The case becomes even more complex when Marc falls into a passionate affair with a young woman, Maya (Nadeshda Brennicke), who is adorned with a tattoo created by a mysterious and since-deceased Japanese artist, which is highly coveted by a group of underground art collectors.
