A wannabe serial killer wins the lottery and pursues his lifelong crush.
Unbeknownst to him, Ben wins the lottery when his mom turns in a ticket she found amongst his things. As his life seems to take a turn for the better, we find out that Ben is a serial killer and he takes out his frustrations on unsuspecting women. After witnessing Ben kill a housekeeper while on their honeymoon, Lucy begins to become a little withdrawn and while making love to Ben, she overhears a news report and discovers that the missing girls all match her description. Lucy heads to Ben's old place and finds the bodies of the missing women. She then digs them up and reburies them in their new home. It's her intent to leave when the next lottery check arrives as she believes that he won't be able to hurt her. When the check does arrive, Lucy tries to grab it and flee but Ben stops her and lays all the cards on the table setting the tone for a deadly confrontation.
Lucy the seemingly insane and definitely enabling blonde love interest of Ben steals the show. Although borderline controlling, I'm find her antics hysterical and Colin Hanks for what it's worth seems to be growing on me. I think it's the unbelievableness of his being. I can't take him seriously, so he brings the quality down to a point where it's easy to suspend belief, and each thing he does is better for it.
I can't take him seriously...and that helps. A lot.
