Vicious Impulses explores the life of a young man starting in the early 1950s, who even as a young boy, displayed criminal tendencies by committing a variety of crimes, for which he escaped prosecution. Then, as a teenager, he strangled his sixteen-year-old sister and discarded her naked body in a wooded area. He served only a portion of his sentence for his sister's murder before being paroled. He maintained a convincing fa?ade of leading an exemplary life, but for how long could he fool those around him? Would he be able to control his psychotic and vicious tendencies?
