dude thinks he's all about "the rules" and being "fair" and shit in his murder games but he clearly stacks the deck way more against some people than others

i.e. amanda just has to kill a guy? um okay, dude's dead

someone else has to DIG A KEY OUT OF THEIR OWN BRAIN THROUGH THEIR EYEBALL?

what the fuck man, what if they fucking TRY to do it but pass out from the sheer fucking agony involved in that?? oh woops yer dead anyway guess you didn't want to live enough :shrug-outta-hecks:

my gf is watching the saw movies and I hate them all

edit: also how the fuck does this dude have all the time and resources to put all this shit together

    Yeah like, it's a sus form of entertainment, I wonder if enjoyers of sadistic torture porn get the same thrill out of reading about unit 731 or Joseph Mengele?

    Hot take maybe, not trying to offend anyone, I just don't appreciate that people are flocking to theaters to watch gratuitous mutilation and torture/murder porn

    Also the Dahmer movie and how people are like lol, whatever, there's always movies coming out like that. Like bitch, you know there's a crowd that loves bad shit happening to gay black kids, and you even admit you know they didn't bother to respect the families when they went about making the movie.

    Just feel like I'm in the friggin Twilight Zone over here sometimes

      I have not seem the Dahmer movie but I think it's popularity is more similar to the true crime genre since it is about a famous killer. I think true crime ends up being more sus than something like Saw since it leads to people overestimating how much violent crime is actually happening and portraying the killers as geniuses.

      If you read enough horror movie blogs you'll learn that most hard core horror fans are more like literary critics than sadists. They're in it for the artistry and craft that goes in to horror movies. Not only do they know the gore isn't real, they also know how the special effects are created and how the effect is achieved. There are horror movie buffs who can watch a movie and tell you who did the special effects because they can recognize the artist's signature in the gore.

      I can't speak to the Dahmer movie because as far as I know movies based on actual crimes aren't that common in horror, but even with the extremely grotesque special effects Saw is still firmly within the tradition of slasher horro movies.
