So in a slightly morbid twist today, I'd like you to indulge the darker part of your imaginations, for a just a little while.
If it were possible to have one fictional serial killer 'come to life', who would you choose, and why?
Personally' it's a hard choice between my two favorite fictional psychos; Dexter Morgan and Dr. Hannibal Lecter.
Now aside from the obvious physical appeal, Dexter is a good choice because despite being a murderer, he's still somewhat of an anti-hero; he has a methodical "code" that he adheres to, and he only kills other serial killers, thereby (theoretically) making society better.
On the other hand; Hannibal is wicked smart, analytical and highly intuitive & resourceful, with a penchant for killing and eating "the rude," (a habit one can almost understand when someone cuts you off in traffic nearly causing an accident.)
So lets hear it; who's your pick for most 'valuable' lunatic?
And as usual, the disclaimer;

I'm gonna have to go with dexter, as much as he fakes the emotions to pull of a normal family guy i applaud that. in the show he doesnt crack under pressure.. he stay cool calm and collective. The blood splatter analyst job is perfect for his identity.
my favorite fictional madman is Moravagine...I don't know how useful to the world he would or could have been but he did at least save one 'real' person's life.
Yes and he killed innocent people carelessly as well. He was one of those serial killers who thought he was helping people in his own twisted way, but wasn't lol.
I guess I put a little to much though into when I watch the moives. what I got from it was if you don't treasure you life why should you live that why he put them threw test to see if they deserve a second chance. I really do think he would help if he was less crazy
If I had to choose a serial killer, I'd rather one that goes after the unpunished wicked. And since he doesn't have to physically kill them, he's basically untraceable.
Death Note. It's a Manga/Anime/Film series. Light is the antagonist. He uses a magical journal called a Death Note to kill criminals who go unpunished by the system.
Aside from the sexiness that IS Michael C Hall, I have to agree that he would be more 'predictable' than Hannibal.
Hell, Hannibal might kill a person for not not being talented enough, a`la the Phil Harmonic musician he murdered... then served him as an entree to the patrons of the orchestra...
Dexter, who channels his vicious urges into 'appropriate' channels with 'approved' targets. What would be more useful than a serial killer that only kills serial killers?
There are plenty of those in real life.
I guess I would choose Dexter, for the obvious reasons.

~how much blood will you shed to stay alive
What useful purpose to society would he serve?
Yes, I saw up to number 4 before the endless repetition was too much to bear.
Nevertheless, Jigsaw's "motivation" behind his killings were basically the equivalent of an adult temper tantrum on a heroin & crack cocktail.
Rather than try to be productive or enjoy what time he had left to live, instead Jigsaw became the ultimate 'bitter bitch', and all for naught.
People either appreciate their lives, or they don't; but no one can torture anyone into caring.
never really looked at in that way. The why I looked at it was if you could survive his tast then you were giveing a second chase
Dexter's just a ripoff of Light IMHO.
