You just reminded me: My Mother, when she was around 55 years old, went and watched Hostel at the movies, without reading the synopsis; she had arrived at a time when it was the only movie about to show at a convenient time for her, so she hurriedly bought a ticket then raced down to the theater.
Needless to say, I don't think she was particularly pleased with the result. Even I couldn't stomach that film.
Kinda funny though: by the title she thought it might be a Chick Flick, you know, a guy and a girl fall in love at a Hostel. Lol.
It is a pretty crazy/interesting idea. Would certainly make for a pretty intense movie.
I'd also like to add that, whilst I encourage freedom of choice over one's own life, I'm not sure I'm a fan of encouraging murderous tendencies...
The Serial Killers may enjoy the experience so much that they decide they then want to extend their "services" beyond the assigned targets...
Although I guess a counterargument could be that perhaps they'd satisfy their bloodlust with the willing targets, thus sparing unwilling victims.
Makes me curious as to the theories of criminal psychologists and the like on the subject...
Lastly, and I'm sorry if this offends anyone, but being suicidal for so long has twisted me enough for some dark humour.
Plus, I feel the following to be twisted enough to be considered congruent, considering the subject:
Perhaps the killers could have satisfaction ratings, such as one might find on Uber. I can't help but snicker wickedly at the thought.
The ratings would have to be collected via video recording of the slaying, though:
• 5 stars = killing the person via the method requested, then staying to clean up, and supporting grieving loved ones who approve of the act.
• 4 stars = killing the person via the method requested, not cleaning up, or supporting loved ones.
• 3 stars = brutally killing the person in an unwanted fashion, staying to clean up and support loved ones.
• 2 stars = brutally killing and raping the person, staying to clean up, not supporting loved ones.
• 1 star = Utterly defiling the person physically/sexually before, during and after the killing, trashing their house, then hunting down their loved ones.
If I don't cut this out I'm going to hell when I CTB for sure, especially on Christmas!
I need sleep.
