I'd like to see an indy movie (I usually don't like the "Oh, it'd have to be an indy movie because hollywood would never do it right" crap, but in this case it's true) based on the book "Teratologist". Now THAT would be a fucked up movie.
Brief synopsis in case you're not familiar with the book (excerpt of a review from Amazon):
"Now, realize that a Teratologist does not study terrain or geology as some might think; Teratology is the study of study of malformations or serious deviations from the normal type in organisms. In other words; Freaks, the grossly disfigured, the grotesque and warped forgotten aberrations of the human world.
Farrington is a collecter of these damaged and oppressed oddities and deviants, stealing them away from the institutions that both care for them and abuse them. His intentions are no nobler than those who abused these horribly deformed creatures though, it is these souls that he intends to call God with.
Manufacturing a new drug that will make viagra look like a sugar pill, he uses these tortured subjects along with kidnapped religious leaders to test his new drug, while in the process attempting to thwart and anger God so much that He will show his face."
