Anyone else ever watch the show, "Most Evil". I find it fascinating.
This Dr has "Evil" separated into 22 different levels, with 22 being the worst. He uses familiar examples like Bundy, Manson, Gacey, Gein, Dahmer, and basically all serial killers, spree murderers, serial rapists, etc.

I am sometimes surprised at a low category for someone who has done some pretty cruel and heinous things. But he accounts for mental illness as a factor too.

For example, Ed Gein had a lower category than I would have guessed. But he had a lower rating because he was so mentally ill and delusional.

Anyone else watch that show?

2. Do Cheney and Bush feature on his list?
If not, the doc has more work to do.

Banal evil-for-profit ought to count.

4. I agree with his analysis of Jim Jones being a 22
That guy was one evil, twisted, snakehandler.

5. I watch the show
and I'm wondering what level that guy who murdered that helpless young man on the bus would be. I found a website if you want to be included in a survey about this issue. It was an interesting survey.

6. I watch it on occasion.....
one segment covered Gary Heidnik - some loon from Philly who abducted women, held them in his basement, and made them do things that I can't make myself type here.

IIRC, he gave him the full 22. I agree.

:hi:

7. I've watched it a few times.
I think I saw Manson, Gein, Gacey and one other I don't recall.

8. Great show
Gein was mostly a grave robber though, so that may have something to do with it.

We cannot get enough. I love Investigation Discovery. It's the new Serial Killer Channel.
Do you ever watch Deranged?

12. It's about different murderers.
The first one was Dahmer, then I think Henry Lee Lucas. Thursday's episode is supposed to be Charlie Manson.
