My 'Favorite' serial killers


Mind you, these guys were BAD, and I don't know how to classify except to say these are my favorites. I am not, nor ever will be, a serial killer. I just like reading and watching the films about them. So here goes.

1. H.H. Holmes
2. Ed Gein
3. Albert Fish
4. Sawney Beane
5. The Borgias

What are yours?

Bundy the golden boy. You should check out the deliberate stranger with mark harmon.

John Wayne Gacy. Good movie on him is To catch a Killer with Brian Dennehy.

Both are tv movies but great nevertheless.

Cool. I'll try and find them soon.

There's another serial killer who has a really interesting story - the Swedish Tore Hedin. You can find an entry about him in Wikipedia. I remember reading an article about him in one of my true crime books (now out of print) and found it was one of the most bizarre and unnerving cases I'd ever encountered. I'm rather surprised the case isn't better known, but it is probably because it happened in Scandinavia rather than an English-speaking country. I think a film version of the whole story would be really gripping.

I agree. Would make a great movie. What a nut ball.

He's more of a spree killer than serial killer. He actually showed some sort of remorse as well, by ending it all. Want some sicko's?

Dennis Nilsen, the British Dahmer, Charles Albright, the Texas Eyeball Killer, The Southern Cal "Freeway Killers" Bonin and Kraft, now these guys are sickos.
