Darlings, This Was The Campiest "Evil, I" Yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                          Girls, as you know by now, my Friday nights are just not complete without viewing "Evil, I" on "Investigation Discovery."  This is sort of a counterpart to "Stolen Voices, Buried Secrets."  Where that program gives you the victim/'s viewpoint, "Evil, I" gives you the killer's. Pure evil, darlings!!!!!!!! Which makes it SO fascinating!!!!!!!!!  And some of them, like Bob Berendella and the Tool Box Murders, are truly disturbing. But last night's program was called "Dressed To Kill", after the famous Brian De Palma film, and, like a plot element there, concerned someone who liked to dress up in women's clothes.  I am telling you, dolls, you have to see this one!  It was a hoot!!!!!!!!!!!

                                           Hadden Clark, the program's subject, had your typical emotionally dysfunctional, burgeoning serial killer childhood.  Alcoholic and emotionally abusive parents; his mother had wanted a girl when he was born, so she often referred to him as "Kristen," dressing him in women's clothes. He grew up resenting the attention women got, and wanted some for himself.  So, he decided the best way to do that was to eliminate the competition, and become a daughter, himself.  So he became a cross dressing serial killer!!!!!!!!!!!

                                             As you can see from the photo above, Hadden is as nutty as the perennial fruitcake.  But a lot better looking than how they dramatized him last night.  Oh, my God, you should have seen the actor they got to play Hadden!!!!!!!!!   A muscular bald headed sort, who looked like a reject from one of Dick Wadd's porn movies!!!!!!!  Then, when he dressed up as a woman, he looked like Divine playing a younger version of Mrs. Bates!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                Hadden had his issues.  By adulthood, he was kicked out of the navy for being a paranoid schizophrenic. He could barely hold down jobs, so one of his brothers, allowed him to live in his basement.  But that was before he was caught masturbating in front of the kids, and brother sent him on his way.  Not to mention, his little six-year-old niece, Aliza, called him a "retard" (something his mother used to say) and boy was this a trigger!!!!!!!  If she wasn't his niece, I think he would have killed her.  Instead, when playmate, Michelle Dorr, came knocking to call, Hadden invited her in, killed her, butchered her, ate her, (yes, he had cannibalistic tendencies!!!) and then hid what was left in a shallow grave near the park. For years, Michelle's own father, Carl, was suspected of killing her.

                                                 Things seemed to improve when he eventually got a gardening job for a woman named Penny Houghtelin, back in 1992. . He became so fond of her, he wanted her for his mother. And he wanted to be a good daughter to her.  But then Laura, her real daughter,  came home from college, and took all the attention away from him, and that could never be.  So, he killed Laura, once more eliminating competition, and buried her in a campsite near where he was living.

                                                    I am telling you, you have to see this murder reenacted on television!!!!!!!! This big, ugly man, in a black fright wig and a Fifties style blue dress, trying to be a daughter!  He looked more like a lesbian aunt!!!!!!!!!!!!  What is wrong with these cross dressing serial killers?   I mean, I know something is wrong to begin with.  But why do they always have to be so ugly, especially the ones in drag????????  Why can't we have some glamorous ones??????????????

                                                     This sequence nearly had me in stitches; I was laughing so hard!!!!!!
They definitely amped up the camp value for this one!!!!!!!!  Maybe because some of the more recent ones had been so disturbing, they felt viewers needed a sort of Gothic comedy!!!!!!!!!  And, oh boy,. was it ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                                         And next week is the Season Finale (wah!!!!!!!!) which will profile Carl/Coral Eugene Watt, also known as the Sunday Morning Stalker.  Personally, I prefer coffee and church on Sunday mornings.  But you know we will not miss this one, loves. The question is, how long will we have to wait for a new batch of killers???????

                                                           Talk about educational television!!!!!!!!  I have learned so much this season--and had a blast!--from "Evil, I!!!!!!!!!!"

                                                             If only Hadden, Norman Bates, and the rest would learn to be more fashion conscious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
