Synopsis

The antisocial or psychopathic character in the movies can be charismatic, independent, misleading, amoral, cruel, or violent. He intrigues, fascinates, frightens, or repels us. In some ways, this is how we get as close as can be to human monstrosity.

How do films choose to show them? Who is really suffering or rejoicing from their actions? Is the spectator an accomplice, a victim, or a vigilante?

Tracing decades of world history and artistic trends, this episode offers a glimpse into the most frightening silver screen antisocials.
