Originally titled "The Freak" during production, Luther the Geek came out in the early 90's and have slipped under the radar ever since. "The Geek" is a reference to what people at the carnival used to refer to others that would be so eager for money that they'd bite the heads off chickens, and apparently audiences in the past used to be into that thing. This leads to our central character Luther, who as a child, saw a "Geek" in action and it scarred him for life.
