Yeah you are probably right there, unfortunately.
But do you think it is more aimed at "frights", "gross out", etc; or do you think it is more to vicariously experience what it might be like to kill someone?
In my post, I thought it was the former, but the latter is far more worrying. Is that where you think they are coming from?
