Disturbing

MoviesI’m somewhat disturbed this morning. I just looked at my traffic stats and saw something that makes me uneasy.

A week ago, I posted some thoughts on the movies Hostel and Wolf Creek. In the post, there was a reference to the inspiration for Hostel and the fact that the director had seen a Thai website offering a “murder vacation”.

Since that time, my referrer reports indicate I have received a fair amount of traffic looking for that term. Apparently, there are a fair number of people searching out that website. Now either they’re trying to find it to verify the bullshit claims of Tarantino and Roth, or there are a lot of sick folks out there looking for a depraved kick.

I really hope it’s the former, rather than the latter.

About The Quip

A psuedo-reformed political hack takes stock of his life, family, community, and living in our nation's capitol. If a good writer writes about what he knows, expect me to cover politics, technology, telecommunications, consumer gadgets, pop culture, the constant struggle that is parenting, the two best kids in the known world, the wife that makes me crazy, the odd moments I get to enjoy my hobbies, and a big goofy mutt named Kobi.
