Quick Hit
“Psycho Killer”, Talking Heads (1977)
Something like one out of a thousand of us is a psychopath1 and one out of a hundred are sociopaths2. Yet most people just cannot understand this tragic, twisted condition. Society’s fascination with psycho killers is mostly a very basal fear of the unknown. A fear of the appalling, bizarre and generally very sad circumstance in life that could create such a person. Most of us watch from a distance – this could never happen to us, we think. We could never be related to someone like this. Or could we?
