and the award for the world's most fucked up family goes to....

The 'Colt' Family of Australia (http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/national/darkness-at-the-edge-of-town-growing-up-in-hell-20131206-2ywrk.html), truly the stuff of nightmares. You see movies about this sort of thing, but reading about this in the news is always so much worse. Faith in humanity now at a new low.

That's one family off the christmas card list.

What about the Baniszewski family? The family that tortured and killed Sylvia Likens?

I think they loosely based "The Girl Next Door" on it, as well as "An American Crime" Although I haven't seen An American Crime.

This horror is disturbing. Now we wait for the film adaptation...::roll eyes::

the Sylvia likens story was crazy :o the girl next door film was awkward to watch at times, especially with the blow torch! golly :\

I read that article about the austrailian family a little while ago and was so confused by who was related to who there was that many names and people involved. strange world we live in huh??x
