monstrosity of humanity.

I'd thought long and hard on a subject matter that interests me, and is important to me for my Remix Assignment. I decided on doing a piece on the horrors inside each human being. Each person is capable of doing things that they never dream they would be able to. Each person has a different person inside themselves, very much alike Dr Jerkyll and Mr Hyde. It is something no one can deny but only hide for only they themselves know the thoughts inside their own heads.

The movie, the Countess by Julie Delpy greatly influenced me in my decision. It is the story of Elizabeth Bathory, a serial killer whose motives are often debated and now become legendary and something of a fairytale. This movie speaks much of the psychology of humans when given immense power. Although many parts of the Bathory's story in this particular movie are fabricated it does its job in showing the monstrosity humans are capable of.

The book Blood Confessions is a novel on Elizabeth Bathory. We have all played the game Bloody Mary in our washroom mirrors, the game that calls on Mary who baths in the blood of children. This particular version of Bloody Mary is from Bathory's story.The story does stray from the actual historic facts, however it shows how humans are often the most horrid monsters within our world.
