I really love that the story included a photo of Jamison with blood down the side of his face before the reveal that he killed his brother. You know something happened, but you don't know what exactly it is, whether it is murder or someone hit him in the head or what. Really upped the suspense. Very well written and really fucked up story. I can't believe he was able to get away with it for that long. Terrifying.

Hmm, still reading, but does he ever butter the floor? How bad can he be if he doesn't do that?

He butters the floor with blood.

It honestly seems like a story that is too insane for a movie. If there was a movie with this plot I probably would have thought it was just too ridiculous.

I had been convinced to never live with a roommate before this story.

This just confirmed my decision.

No shit. This seems like the kind of thing some horror writer would have surely done by now.

And to think this all took place (or at least some of it) like 20 minutes away. Not that I pay attention to the local news, but geez.

That was one hell of a movie script. I was particularly shocked by Jamison murdering his brother in cold blood for no reason at all.

This story is why I would never look for a roommate on Craigslist - I'd want someone I know.

Seems more like it could be a dark comedy/thriller in the style of Coen Brothers or Martin McDonagh (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri).

But it'll probably be a 20/20 or something.

That part wouldn't work in the movie at all, people would just be like "what, that makes no sense"

this really is a great horror movie concept though

Be pretty easy to write in a trigger that caused it based on the brother doing better than him in life.

You'd have to get in all that family backstory for the villain. I don't know how you'd have time to fit it in to a conventional script without telling the story from the villain's perspective.

But that would take away from a lot of the horror element by not having it be from the last victim's perspective.

It'd be difficult.

I think you could relate most of that during a investigation segment, but you probably wouldn't get all of it.
