No, they threaten to kill all of us unless we change. Then we are given 6 months to find and kill every serial killer on the planet and they give us the technology to instantly detect serial killers but it turns out the device detects potential serial killers as well and it's flagging multiple politicians, celebrities, nobel laureates and even children.
Or death isn’t even an inconvenience for them. They’re a hive mind and losing one loses nothing. He gets no joy from it and they are but mildly annoyed.
A serial killer wouldn't necessarily do well in this situation. They tend to get off on being sneaky and killing people with no way to defend themselves. A combat vet is probably their worst possible choice, which is why it's a popular trope.
Not only that, there were a bunch of his neighbors telling the police that he was killing people and that his apartment smelled like the literal pile of rotting corpses that it actually was, and the police response was, “You’re black/gay, we don’t care.”
Dahmer was a psychotic, tactless, idiot fucking dumbass that genuinely did not seem to be even trying to hide his actions, and the police were still too fucking stupid, lazy, and bigoted to even notice.
Documentaries always like to show them as geniuses because it's more exciting than the idea that people are oblivious and law enforcement isn't always effective.
There was one fan fiction where the A-Team was abducted by aliens. Let's say they promptly broke out of confinement, locked themselves in a room with a bunch of alien goodies and went underground in a nebula. That was a fun one.
Instead of a serial killer, maybe an obsessive weirdo who can figure out how anything works (and how they can be made to not work) and really, really wants to go home.
The aliens keep trying to find their captive, but parts of the ship keep breaking.
I struggled with that show when I was a kid. I didn't understand the point. Because my family is... just like that. Dear old Dad, my uncles, even my mom who made her own wedding dress on a treadle sewing machine.
Okay, so the aliens don't abduct him. They pose as humans, ala They Live or Men In Black. They don't know he knows they're aliens. They're his family, friends, and business partners.
If aliens were to abduct someone I'd think they would want someone who's alone and out of sight of most people. So it's probably going to be someone farther from the cities, and just walking by themself. So they might abduct someone out hunting, or they might abduct a someone hopped up on meth wandering through back roads or swamp areas of Polk County, Florida.
Either way, they probably got more than they bargained for.
Heck, have the aliens try to abduct some wildlife and then it turns out they picked up the cocaine bear. Play it as an action comedy from the perspective of the aliens.
Bonus points if they then abduct a human hunter to deal with it and he turns out to be the deranged serial killer from the post.
This actually already happened, the Aliens had to put him back and all his friends just wrote it off as a meth high. After seeing what 1 human was like the aliens fucked off and said it wasn't worth trying to cohabitate with us.

It's smashed and washed into the sea in the process. The employee gets eaten by a frilled lizard. Billions of years later, that region of the galaxy is still quarantined. The descendants of the surviving prokaryotes look up at the stars hungrily from the surface of a tiny blue dot.
Actual sociopath who has tried very hard to maintain boundaries and not commit crime even in secret suddenly finds himself in a safe space for venting.
Do psychopaths actually do this? I thought the whole point was that they didn't care about other people, so would have no particular interest in hiding?
Not quite. There's a range of antisocial personality disorders. The common characteristic is lacking empathy. For the most part, the interest in hiding is more a byproduct of self preservation, getting what you want, and upbringing.
Just because you don't care about something doesn't mean you don't do things you were taught , you just do them because that's how things are done, not because you've internalized the reason behind it. I hold the door for the person behind me because being kind to strangers is good, and I'd feel bad if I made someone have a worse day. A sociopath might do it because they were told that that's what you do.
Put differently: they view people as akin to objects. I will openly admit to having objectified my toaster. I don't care what it thinks of me, and when it stops toasting I'll only keep it long enough to reference the model number and get a new one. (Not being a sociopath, I've now considered the feelings of my toaster and feel a tinge of irrational guilt about writing that about my loyal toaster).
Abusing the toaster wouldn't give me intrinsic joy. It would cause my family to look at me oddly and I'd have to answer all sorts of questions. Also I couldn't make bagels. Treating an inert object well helps me avoid an uncomfortable situation, and is more useful to me. Once treating it poorly had more value though, I won't really hesitate.
That's why they often find themselves in jobs where treating people like objects is helpful. Other people balk at ruthlessly firing people right before the holidays, or telling a child with cancer that their treatment is more expensive than the premiums they'll bring in, even accounting for the lawsuit for wrongful claim rejection, and so they need to die. Sociopath just sees the benefit to themselves of making their quarterly numbers look good.
He was a good husband and a loving father, he hid his true nature through great effort, so he could have a better life. But one day, dark shapes appeared in the sky, and he was taken prisoner by beings who had every reason to believe he was docile...
This could be done by fans overdubbing the movie Doom (2005). Add translation captions to all the monsters where they are friendly and confused but the sounds come out as Doom monsters.
Like Robot Chicken where they showed Panda Baba was actually a friendly architect and his friend was messing around by saying he was dangerous to ObiWan in the cantina.
That was my first thought too!
...then I wondered, how about a Trinity Killer, in his prime?! Whole family gets abducted and he's still trying to stay "under cover" from them...
Long as we’re listing horror movie ideas, here’s mine:
Sanewashing
Minor parody of modern politics. Begins as a creepy mysterious slasher movie about a man in a completely ridiculous clown costume slashing people up with little warning. A common theme is that no victims react as they should - frequently assuming they are amid a camera prank, or simply experiencing “sensory overload”.
While the movie follows one hero that is aghast and wants to explain the killings, other reactions are surprisingly mute - focused on mourning the deaths, not fearing any killer; and accepting the idea of a slasher in a clown costume as a stress induced hallucination.
Eventually, the hero is captured and the killer decides to give away the secret in a villain monologue: He’s just a serial killer who wanted to kill, but a random impulse made him decide on the clown costume - and it basically makes his existence stealthy, as though no one can acknowledge his very existence even when he barges in the front door.
This is kinda/sorta the plot of Alien, just with the species reversed. I love it. You could change the setup where the aliens respond to a distress call from a "Space Family Robinson in stasis" situation.
It's a woman breastfeeding in a public area and the aliens attack her with a flamethrower. They miss and the baby pukes breast milk over the aliens and it burns through their skin like acid.
When I casually read the OP I was thinking of Aliens as the Xenomorphs rather then the all inclusive "alienes" they clearly intended, and thought.. "Ooh a serial killer, so they lay eggs in his chest just like any other human? Hardly seems noteworthy."
Holy shit I think that's what got me reading sci-fi a couple years ago. And since then I've been reading me a shitload of sci-fi. Unhealthy amount, maybe. Fucking love it
The "free world" referred to western democratic countries post WW2. The US president was the leader of the free world in as much as the US was considered the largest economic, military, and political power of that time. That position has been diminishing over the last 25 years (or more, depending on what you blame it on).
The family doesn't know, he has to pretend to be just as scared as they are and hide his murder-joy when they're present. They think he's abandoning them in a moment of panic when he's on the hunt.
Hey, where's the movie from the perspective of the Xenomorph?
I was just born on this ship! I didn't ask to be here! I'm starving and need a safe place for my babies! I'm doing all I can to survive, and everyone else on this ship is trying to kill me!
They are aliens. They couldn't give a fuck about some little serial killer man. I mean, look at your picture, the blood must be his. If it was of some alien, he would be exposing his brains in two seconds. This gives me "I can take a polar bear armed with a knife", Tate-like vibes.
Pretty sure their dad is John Rambo? I think they are plotting out the most believable Rambo story since 1st blood. Abusive PTSD Veteran is hunted down by local and federal authorities, his history backfilled by his own child and a team of 15 psychiatrists. This summer John Rambo is on the run......from Family Court.

It's not exactly what's described here, but anyone to whom the idea appeals may enjoy the movie Sunshine.

Outside of as an animated screensaver, I don't see how...

I think I watched about 10 minutes.

Then you missed a lot of good stuff, but specifically the part I'm referencing!

Shadows of some wriggly spiky tentacles with teeth.... getting ripped appart, green blood splatters on the wall.

Thought it was going to be Dexter.

I thought it was Master Chief from Halo without the quiet part.

They are aliens. They couldn't give a fuck about some little serial killer man. I mean, look at your picture, the blood must be his. If it was of some alien, he would be exposing his brains in two seconds. This gives me "I can take a polar bear armed with a knife", Tate-like vibes.

Why are you assuming the aliens are dangerous monsters with razor sharp claws and acid blood?
selokichtli@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 31d
Maybe because of the capitalization and writing. I'd go for "alien beings" for clarity, but I guess "Aliens" works fine in retrospective.

Aliens, as in Ridley Scott xenomorphs, don't come in spaceships to abduct humans. Context.

WTF are you going on about?

Pretty sure their dad is John Rambo? I think they are plotting out the most believable Rambo story since 1st blood. Abusive PTSD Veteran is hunted down by local and federal authorities, his history backfilled by his own child and a team of 15 psychiatrists. This summer John Rambo is on the run......from Family Court.

I'd watch that.

They're an extraterrestrial being whose ship crashed in New Mexico last century after an unlucky abduction. Whole thing just hits too close to home.

I beg your pardon?

You’re gonna have to be a lot more specific than that

What did any of this have to do with the plot of a nonexistent movie?
(Congrats on the therapy, though)
homes@piefed.world · -2 pts · 32d
Uh… what?
(Also, do you have some pastrami? on Rye, perhaps? maybe with a little mustard?)

Serial killer fantasy? No thanks. Get yourself some help.
TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today · 19 pts · 32d
I mean that is like an entire genre of entertainment.....Enjoying a horror movie does not mean you enjoy actual serial murder.
betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 32d
Like an accomplice? Makes the killing easier, sure, but it's too much of a risk if secrecy is a priority.
loaf@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 32d
Please don’t tell this person about the hundreds of movies Hollywood has made about serial killer fantasy.
Also, don’t kill their high horse.
DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 32d
We don't hurt the horse, we just knock the rider off.
