The guy in Red Dragon named himself after “The Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed in Sunne” or something like that-a painting by William Blake.
If you were a serial killer, what painting would you name yourself after?
If you play, it must be a painting and only one.
I’d call myself El Greco’s “View Of Toledo”
“View of Toledo has struck again, Captain!”
Cool.
I’d like to be Wayne Wayne Wayne.
All serial killers have Wayne as a middle name, I’d want to be three times as cool.
And it IS TOO a painting.
I saw it in the Museum of Modern Art.
Right next to the Mona Lisa.
And Water Lilies.
It had Wayne Newton, John Wayne Gacy, and John Wayne in that one lonely diner painting.
So there.
Whistler’s Mother, just for the gender bending shock effect.
Hamlet - You’d be the brother that Bruce Wayne never talks about.
StG
Voice of Fire by Barnett Newman…you have to be stricken with some form of insanity to understand how it passes for art.
I’d have to go with either Dali’s “The Persistence of Time” or William’s “The Last Ride of The Purple People Eater”. I guess it would depend on the type of person I was going after.
Hmmmm…is “or” the same as picking two?
Ladies and gentlemen, the verdict please.
“Kittens Playing Poker”. That way they’d know they had a real sicko on their hands.
There is (or was) a Picasso at the Art Institute in Chicago called “Crazy Woman with Cats”. That’d be me.
O.K To spare the reputation of Robert Williams, I’ll just pick the Dali. That way I can make the same mistakes as serial killers in most mysteries and leave a calling card so the police can confirm they were all done by the same guy-maybe a couple of melted watches. Knowing my luck, I’ll end up being The Twisted Timex Terminator.
I’m wondering how I’d have to do people in to get named “The Piss Christ Killer”
Still, I’d rather go with the non-painting name of Winchester Wayne Babaloo, just because I want to hear Connie Chung say it.
Van Gogh’s Starry Night. I like the sound of “The Starry Night Killer”. oh, that sounded bad… must stop reading John Douglas Books…
How 'bout “The Scream-er”???
“The Scream” That guy offed hinself. I dunno.
I would have to call myself “Guernica,” after Picasso’s Guernica. Then I would not only have a cool name in the press, but also something to model my crime scenes after, if we really want to go that route.
“The Starry Night Killer” is really good. Maybe you could have a collection of ears or something.
This may be of interest, D.E.S.K: there actually is a Salvador Dali serial killer.
Goya’s Saturn Devouring his Child.
Brrr…
Of course, no cop would ever forget finding a victim of The Jackson Pollack Killer!
Err, well, perhaps they would.
The Jackson Pollock Killer, on the other hand, would haunt their nightmares forever!
