After a prolonged internal debate which I have described here, I purchased the DVD of "The Collection," Lee's horror movie from last fall, while out shopping a few weeks ago.  This post has numerous screencaps of Lee from the movie, as well as descriptions of what happens, so MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD.

First, let me say that, in general, I hate horror movies.  It probably goes back to when I was a kid with a very overactive imagination who faithfully watched "Saturday Afternoons with Bill Kennedy At the Movies" on Detroit's Channel 50.  I was traumatized at an early age by movies such as "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" with Spencer Tracy, Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds," and "The Ghost and Mr. Chicken" with Don Knotts (this one especially--we're talking nightmares for a week).  So the fact that I bought this movie, watched it, and took screencaps from it tells you a lot about my newfound obsession with appreciation of Lee and his acting skills.

So, "The Collection" is your basic horror movie.  There is blood--a LOT of blood.  There is gore--a LOT of gore.  There are a LOT of deaths of innocent young people at the hands of a crazy psycho killer who wears a mask.  It's what you'd think it would be.  However, on the plus side, Lee has a ton of screen time, as a good guy, acting very badass as the guy in charge of rescuing the targeted damsel-in-distress.  So, with the aid of the fast-forward and mute buttons, I was able to get through it and actually enjoy myself at times.  There was even a cool little twist at the end (which I do NOT spoil).

NOTE:  I have purposely kept the gore to a minimum in the screencaps.

Here is flashback!Lee (perhaps using the same wig from his L&O:SVU appearance?):
