Sort of the topic on another thread, what is it about this 'sick' admiration?

I could murder a bowl of Just Right

does that count me in?

Weird people - like the stupid kind of women that write to murderers and somethimes marry them. Often these women - look exclusively for these type of men - because they have their own problems!

Morbid curiosity, I would imagine, I hate those kind of things though

I think that's pretty much a large part of it. I remember reading that the american media sometimes inadvertedly glamourised certain killers so maybe that adds to it as well. I don't get the adoration myself, it's rather peculiar.

I can understand being interested on a psychological lovel since it must be fascinating to see why someone would act like that and see how they tick and such.

Ever seen Natural Born Killers? That was about the media's glorification of serial killers. Really good film.

Always wanted to see that actually. Woody is in it as well, he's a good actor.

Yep! Great in Zombieland.

He always does well at playing characters like that. You should definitely watch Natural Born Killers. I think you would like it.

There is curiosity, but i'm talking about actual tributes to them. Like you would for Lennon and that

I guess the term 'charismatic killer' can show how shallow some people can be. I mean, women want to marry and do marry these people lol

Well, they can't be right in the head either though

I'm fascinated by The Columbine Massacre, probably because they were just seemingly ordinary kids like me and you. They also liked KMFDM.

World War III, be all that you can be.

KMFDM and Doom. Two lads after my own heart.

Also I imagine if you are, like these two, hell bent misantrophists, someone like Hitler would be somewhat of a role model, hence the worship.

Also, killers are charismatic. Evil stuff can be charismatic. And stupid people can be duped into believing in it through sheer power of imagery. See : The Third Reich.

While on subject, Marilyn Manson got his name from Charles Manson and Marilyn Monroe, noting the dual celebrity status they held.

They were Troubled.

Not like Us at all.

They have achieved a negative award. Many are negative in this world.

Zippy · 01-03-2010, 04:21 PM

Serial killers are all kinds of fascinating. I love documentaries about them.

Saddest one was that Pakistani guy who killed possibly hundreds of homeless boys. There was a shot of all their sandals piled up in his home! Just the most horrible sight.
