Obsessed with True Crime discussion

Thinking about what Rodney Alcala did to his victims makes me cringe, but what Francis Dolarhyde did to Freddy Lowndes was even worse in a way:

WOW........where did you find THIS Fishface? I don't remember a Francis Dolarhyde or what he did to Freddy Lowndes. This is spooky.

That's a scene from the movie MANHUNTER, based on Thomas Harris's Red Dragon.

The really bad part? Freddy lived through this long enough to be rushed into surgery.

Holy Cow....I cannot imagine what those minutes must have been like.

Hot. Very, very hot.

Haha! : )

Indeed!

Its hard for the average person to imagine how anyone can be cruel to another living being.

And I hope the average person isn't cruel too often, but in my experience just about everyone takes a run at it sooner or later.

Now, the way Mary Jane Kelly died...THAT was bad.

Gilles De Rais holds the number one place for the worst and most brutal way to go. He raped, tortured and killed hundreds of little children, mostly boys. He would torture and mutilate them alive in the most inhuman methods possible, ejaculating over the children while they lay dying. He liked to stab them in the jugular vein and enjoy the squirting blood sprouting over him.

I never heard that much of a lowdown on what he did to the kids when they were alive. Where did you read it, Bebe?

That does remind me however of Countess Bathory. She was the female counterpart of De Rais who made a point of torturing the young girls who came to work for her, later raping and murdering them in conjunction with her dear auntie. Once you applied for a job with this woman your entire life was booby-trapped and you never knew when it would escalate to sexual torture and a slow death.

And it would be hard to do worse than to run into Bob Berdella. He didn't even offer you a beer before he strapped you down and started torturing you. The man who escaped him alive jumped out a second-story window to get away, breaking his leg in the process...and he kept right on running. That's how bad Berdella was.

Good way to say it Fishface.
