"In the Light of the Moon" ("Ed Gein" in the US and Australia) is a 2000 film about serial killer Ed Gein, whose crimes inspired the novel and film "Psycho", as well as plot elements of both "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" and "The Silence of the Lambs". The film stars Steve Railsback as Ed Gein and Carrie Snodgress as Augusta Gein, his mother.

Gein dug up the corpses of over a dozen women and made bizarre objects out of their remains before finally shooting two people to death and butchering their bodies. The film also tells of Gein's tormented youth, his adored but domineering mother, and the 1957 arrest that uncovered the bizarre series of murders.
