If you watch the second part of the Meet the 2008 Tony Nominees interview with the sound off, you can completely see how he could play a serial killer. He totally cracks out the crazy eyes and intense facial expressions for that interview.
Now, mother always said that whenever you hear a strange, frightening, and potentially life-threatening ghostly chant coming from the dark woods that there's one thing that you should do: Not wake the others and go investigate it alone...

lol, I was watching Grill week on the Food Network last night, and one of the shows was a bbq contest. Contestants could either bbq ribs or "the whole hog." I couldn't help but laugh.

I guess if anyone went the whole hog, it would be an R-rated cooking show?

I know this is random but it's so wierd. Seeing the new york phil concert the other night really made me miss watching Raul on stage. I can't believe before the concert, it had been five months since I'd seen him on stage. That is just tooooo long. And now I'm gonna be moving away. The idea of not being able to see Raul on broadway anymore is really hard to grasp. I keep getting excited about Leap of Faith, then really sad cause I don't think I am gonna get to see it. I miss him. As fangirly as that is...

Does this link work? Rauly is being completely adorkable in Part IV (from 3:04) talking about how he will get ready for the Tonys. I've only watched this clip, he might be in some of the others too.

Awww, that was so cute! (And no, he’s not in any of the other videos.
How will you get red carpet ready?

A bit more information about the serial killer, from the message board on the IMDb page:
"Anyways, we know a few things about the killer. He's said to be possessed, or suffers from multiple personalities. He hears the voice of a demon that commands him to kill. He is also trying to keep this "dark side" from his family, leading him to live a double life as a family man and serial killer."
That can be taken a lot of ways. It could just be backstory told in flashbacks, because the killer is supposed to have been dead for 15 years. But there's some speculation that he escaped his execution and has been hiding ever since. Or there's another possibility - the killer has been dead for 15 years and it's spirit is possessing this family man.
Any way you look at it, it's gonna be gruesome.

I'm reluctant to trust anything on IMDB, but the more I read, the more I think I might have to pass on this one. I can do gruesome and gory, but I can't do creepy/scary/nightmare inducing.

Hmm... As a psychiatric counselor, the whole "multiple personality disorder" thing in movies gets my hackles up. I can suspend my disbelief for zombie Raul, but I'm hoping they portray it as possession as opposed to mental illness.

Spidey - I agree completely. On the other hand, in some circles "multiple personality disorder" is the job description of an actor.

Can't wait for the movie, it's sure to be the best thing since sliced bread
Anyway, so I think that character analysis is actually taken from the character breakdown that was posted a couple of months ago:
Abel Plenkov: Seen first in flashback, he's a meticulous, powerfully built family man of 33 who is battling to cope with a multiple personality disorder. A devoted husband and father, Abel is terrified when a malevolent entity starts controlling his thoughts and actions. Struggle though he may, he ultimately succumbs to the ghastly impulses that are driving him. Lead.

I'm sorry, I think Raúl is gorgeous just the way he is, but... "powerfully built?"
It sounds like he's possessed, then. I figured that was the more likely, since this is going to be like, horror film cliché-ville.

Weight = power? I feel so much better about myself now.
I'm totally imagining Raúl on steroids. It's surprisingly not pretty.

Why is his build relevant to the character? It's not the Hulk.
