The Killer Inside Me

I recently watched The Killer Inside Me. Casey Affleck plays a sheriff's deputy psychopathic killer with a "sickness" that seeks to break free. It's not the best portrayal of a psychopath I have seen, in fact it's a little hackneyed. I wonder if the book was any better in this regard, according to Stanley Kubrick "Probably the most chilling and believable first-person story of a criminally warped mind I have ever encountered." There are a couple interesting reasons to watch the film, though.

The movie has a somewhat unique brand of indiscriminate killings. The method and mode of the killings appear unfathomable, presumably because there is some self-delusion or insanity going on in the mind of the killer, but it's never made explicit. He convinces himself that he needs to kill these people, that it is the only thing to do and the facts support his conclusions to a certain extent but not quite. The audience is left thinking, "I can sort of see why he did that, but it also seems like a mistake."

This is unlike either most horror films where the killings are unapologetically senseless or crime dramas where the killings are unapologetically telelogical. The resulting depictions of killing are all the more disturbing because of this aspect -- you wonder whether he isn't jumping to conclusions, doing something that he may regret when he finds out the real facts. It reminds me of the same horrific self-justifications in Boxing Helena that leads the protagonist to perform amputations on the object of his obsession. People who think rationally, people who have not killed or maimed for pleasure watch these types of movies and squirm because they can't quite convince themselves that this could never happen to them. They know of their own powers of self-deception and think, there but for the grace of God go I.

The other fun aspect of the film's indiscriminate killings is seeing how the victims each respond. In one scene our killer is explaining the deaths of two people to a friend of his. The friend volunteers that the victims must have had it coming, to which the killer replies, "No one has it coming. That's why no one can see it coming." Indeed, because the killings are relatively unprovoked and unwarranted, none of his victims do see it coming and they all react to the killings in different ways. One moment they are self-assured, even making small demands of the killer, "not now," "get dressed," "where's the money," etc. In just a few moments they are being killed and staring up at him with not just surprise, but real disbelief. For a second you can see them wonder, "how could this possibly be happening?" as if they just saw a law of physics being violated. It makes you realize how entitled we all feel, how everyone believes that they have certain rights that will never be violated, could never be violated, chief among them being the right to life. Yet here is an individual who routinely violates those rights, with no repercussions. Some of the killings are done in such odd ways that the audience also feels disbelief, "Can you really die that way?" and you realize that the world holds many more dangers than you ever dared admit to yourself.

Best quote by the creepy Bill Pullman: "A weed is a plant out of place. I find a hollyhock in my cornfield, and it's a weed. I find it in my yard, and it's a flower. You're in my yard."

  3. apart from the the killing, the warped sense of reality and self justifications are no different from the feminine sexuality which leaves a messy wake of destroyed but alive victims.

    I don't think anyone with common sense believe they have rights that will never be violated. They may believe their rights shouldn't be violated or they may wish them not violated but thinking they will never be violated or cannot be violated?... that's a common but interesting psychopathic assumption or twisted rationalization that is false IMO. 10 minutes on the planet teaches anyone that ones "rights" and wishes are often violated or not met.

    When they aren't met, like say in the case of being killed suddenley, then of course someone will be surprised and shocked... not because they think their right has been violated and it could never happen... but because of the unlikely context and the stakes and likely the pain involved.

    This often expressed rationalization of the sociopath that people (prey)feel they are entitled and are delusional and are so confortable and need to be shooken up or are dumb and should be taken advantage of is a delusion itself. It's apparently based on deliberate self delusion (anti-logic) on the part of the sociopath (because of anger?) and the lack of an informing normal empathic connection to other humans imo.

  7. I haven't seen this movie, or any for that matter that really stick out as the 'real deal', but then again, I don't see/read a lot about the subject in regards to fiction, so I'm sure I've missed out on a gem or two. The book sounds like it might be more on the money, or at the very least entertaining.

    As far as people being surprised, logic, and, what was that you said, anti-logic? *chuckles* No, that's not how it works it all.

    It's not about being delusional in the least. It's about being in denial. Of course people know the world is dangerous, and that there are people out there who can, and might even try to kill them. But to keep that at the fore of your conscious being would be maddening, and a crushing kind of paranoia.

    It's a matter of out of sight, out of mind, with a dash a denial. Nobody wants to think they're a victim. The fact is, everyone is a target, predator, prey, everyday Joe, it doesn't matter. We're all animals in an animal kingdom that likes to operate at an abstract level where the rules of nature and the rules of civilization clash against each other, and where people sometimes choose to follow one set or the other when they damn well please.

    Some rules have to be followed because they transcend the art of limitations and instead encompass compulsory action. Those are real laws that need to be followed, the laws of one's nature. Breaking those have severe consequences for both mind and body, where the laws of men have no such effect.

  8. My point is sociopaths often rationalize or describe their predatory behavior as simply taking advantage of the weak or delusional... with "sense of entitlement" often spoken of as a delusion and bad thing. It does sound bad when framed the way it is by sociopaths... But the "sense of entitlement" is really a very logical reaction to living on the planet with various risks. It is not that I can never be killed... it is that I don't want that and the risk of it varies depending on context. The more the context lacks obvious risk the more the surprise.. and that's true with anything. Sociopaths twist sense of entitlement to I can "never", I "must always" etc. Like that sure people sound like assholes and one can even sympathize a little with this viewpoint.. but is is false, obviously.

  9. Because to break it down into great detail is a waste of fucking time, usually.

    People usually do not thoroughly articulate everything about a situation, and why would they?

    Did they have it coming? You bet your ass most of them did. Is it illogical, truly? Who is being illogical now? The person passing judgment, or the person passing judgment on the person who passed judgment in a scenario they were never part of in the first place?

    I call bullshit on your simplified logic. You weren't there, part of it, part of life from my point of view, taking in all the sensory information I did, nor do you have a mind similar to my own, so how can you possibly make a claim in which you have no point of reference? You can't. You're just regurgitating what you read or heard, not truly understanding any of it, like the good little aspie you are.

    But who am I to say that's how an aspie's mind works? I guess I could speculate and make claims on it based off of things I have heard about Aspergers on the interwebz. Seems to be the popular way to rationalize mental disorders around here.

  14. Of course we feel a sense of entitlement, and that's not pathological per se. It's all good until we start believing that the universe will provide for us. I deserve whatever I want, but it's up to me to make sure I get it.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Sense of entitlement in my case comes from being consistently great at whatever I decide to get into. If I don't fail at what I put my mind to, and almost always do better than my so-called peers, how am I not entitled to a high opinion of myself if I deserve it?

    Part of not having a conscience and being highly competitive is why people like us are so damn good at what we decide to do, and that almost feral ferocity definitely separates us from others.

    You call it sense of entitlement. I call it being amazing at everything I do and expecting to be treated accordingly. It's a matter of respect earned.

    ReplyDelete
  20. So you're saying in order to be sociopathic, you have to have a completely delusional sense of entitlement, as opposed to simply feeling or being superior?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Yes, it's grandiose. It isn't delusional to the psychopath. Why do you think 'lack of REALISTIC long term goals' is a mark? A psychopath will always make outragous claims like 'I am destined to be world leader' We don't look at that and say 'I'm not going to say this and that because it's delusional' We barely ever internalize.

    ReplyDelete
  22. You're just squeezing yourself in a box that fits just right with the nodding heads, trying to play more aware then self aware. It doesn't work that way. It's really pathetic, too.

    You wouldn't consider being a world leader a grandiose goal if you actually thought you could pull it off (which a psychopath not only could think, but might actually be able to do).

    Grandiose and delusional are measurements taken from a frame of reference from another person who considers their views more realistic. Of course you can't take a felon sitting behind bars from armed robbery serious when he says he wants to be a world leader. But how many world leaders ended up being thugs before (and during) office, ask yourself that, you idiot.

    Long term goals don't work for the same reason a personal code and boundaries don't work in the long term. It's just one more thing to rebel against and break. If the achievement is something that can be done and requires an intense amount of focus and energy, then it's not going to feel like a goal. It's going to feel like a task, and when it comes to tasks, I either don't give a shit, or I'm in for it 100 and crazy percent.

  23. Lol, calm down you bitch, I'm just countering anything you say to annoy you. You are on a sociopath blog claiming you are a sociopath, yet you haven't gave anyone reasons to believe you, but they still believe you, why? Because they are naive.

    You try too hard Adam. Way, way too hard. And that's no one here believes you're a sociopath, psychopath, OR narcissist, just a grown child. Because that's exactly what you are.

  37. Always the finality, unpredictability and paradox of death to conjure up a heated and focused conversation.

    In this regard belief is unapologetically senseless. And debate unapologetically teleological.

    Why is there always a push to find a final cause? In that regard a strongly held opinion is the ultimate entitlement. And our only protection from the dangers of "you ever dared admit to yourself" is some flexibility. Such is one of the many purposes behind fiction and film.

    for common traits have you seen the survey done here a while ago?
    it seems psychopath types have low body temperatures, low blood pressure, eat to survive, look young for their age, and don't take cold medicine. this is all in addition to the obvious ones such as preference for night above day, and actual diagnostic traits such as lack of conscience and being easily bored.

    i'd have liked to add many other questions to the list. not gonna ask now, gotta head off, some other time.

  74. I haven't watched this movie, so I can't really say if it's a good characterization of a psychopath or not. But from the description you give, and from the small clip from the movie, there's nothing that seems out of place about him to me... that is, in the perspective of a psychopath.

    One can easily get an idea in the way he describes and find it a bit 'unreasonable' or 'risky', or whatever may be the case.

    Also, seeing it is pictured as going on in the 1960s that makes it even more believable.

    Since I haven't seen or heard any descriptions about how he kills, I don't have an opinion on that. But generally speaking few goes out of their way to create killings that don't seem likely to be completed.

    In that respect he would be more likely to be a rich someone's son with the power and money to use all kinds of means to set up strange scenarios.

    So maybe you're right, it's not exactly the most likely way to happen. But I can see the reason to set the stage as the director has chosen to set it: In a more common environment. It brings it closer to the audience, making it more of what it's meant to be: Real Life Horror depiction.

    I'll certainly watch it sometime!... '^L^,

    "I have never understood why people fear death. They are not afraid of before birth, why are they afraid of after death?"

    They fear death because they compare it with loss, and loss with pain. From there to the association that death is pain is a short step, especially with all the grim imaginings we can gather from people in a pre-death situation (mortal illnesses, etc.).

    That's pretty much all there is to it.

    Guess that's why it stuck with me (I'd generally forget something seemingly ridiculous like that).

    You're on to something. And I am told I'm very typical for my sign as well. But then, so much about my sign seems typical for people with my diagnosis as well.

    I'm not sure if horoscopes in the modern form are the best supernatural model, but I used to be quite efficient at spotting people's signs when I was a teenager.

    "How can you go back to being just another family member of a business when you're helped fight and run wars?"

    Exactly, boring, boring, boring.

  94. "...there is a killer inside everyone. A darkness that is just waiting for a Caesar or Hitler to unleash it."

    There is duality in perception. Ultimately everyone and everything is just a body, an object. A lifeless mutilated corpse freaks most people out because it is a blatant denial of all that was previously attached to it. Attaching emotions and memories to objects is cerebral, like feeling sentimental or responsible..clouds.

    Sometimes the awareness that is pure creeps out or is unleashed. The satisfaction that comes from 'objectifying' everything including ourselves, is liberating. Whether it's jumping off a cliff, killing someone, watching someone get killed or an illicit sexual encounter. We can interact and explore an 'object' with less reservations than anything clouded with our projected emotions because it is dispensable. This becomes playful, exciting and can make us feel invincible.

  96. I know, right? He did a damn good Warlock, stealing the unbaptized fat of a child to fly.

    Seriously, good shit right there.

  97. What we call the trauma which triggers apathy or lack of remorse or fear of consequences (à la dexter's) is nothing more than a reflex to the momentary glimpse of what reality is. Some don't need a traumatic event because they were born without the capacity to be conditioned. So their curiosity is pure and impulsive. Sociopaths I think do not belong in this category. I think they are just cunning individuals who understand how duality works and establish themselves as the conduits that facilitates and regulates this for the 'conflicted' to their advantage, hence the proclivity with control.

  98. Daddy and Mommy issues.

    When no one has stuck up for you ever, and they continually ask you what it is that you have done to cause someone else to treat you badly, you end up being your own parent pretty right quick

  99. Howdy would you mind letting me know which webhost you're using? I've
    loaded your blog in 3 different internet browsers
    and I must say this blog loads a lot quicker then most.
    Can you suggest a good internet hosting provider at a honest price?
    Cheers, I appreciate it!

  100. The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad
    and tested to see if it can survive a forty foot drop,
    just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is
    now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is entirely off
    topic but I had to share it with someone!
