As I saw how they hack each other. And how blood squirts. *Gross* I thought I'm gonna throw up seriously. But then I recalled some equally-gruesome massacres and murders that had taken place here in the Philippines.
1. The first one would be the ARANDIA Massacre famously known as the Lipa Massacre: Lord Deliver Us From Evil. I first saw the film adaptation of this case when I was still in elementary. I can still remember that scene when the criminal had killed the whole family. 'The Greatest Love of All' was still playing in the background. This movie taught me to: NOT TO TALK TO PEOPLE WHOM YOU DO NOT KNOW COMPLETELY. Emphasis on the word 'cuz the criminal in this movie was a family friend.

* scares me to death.* |
2. The ANTIPOLO Massacre. Which made me jump off my seat. 'Cuz there was this scene where Cesar Montano, who played the role of the killer, was sharpening his bolo then when he looked up - his eyebrows where like -- uhm, I cannot explain. The heartbreaking part was that he was the murderer of his own family. There was a scene where Sunshine Cruz ran barefooted in the forest to be able to survive. And if my memory serves me right - she has a little baby pa yata. And she endured all the pain of thorns, and everything in the woods to be able to survive. Which unfortunately - did not happened.

3. And of course who would be likely to forget the murder that stamped the statement, UNSAFE FOR MEDIAMEN to our country. The MAGUINDANAO Massacre also known as the Ampatuan Massacre that took place on November 23, 2009. This had also give rise to the declaration of Martial Law in the place of the crime. Most of the victims in this case were media men who were there to do this sworn jobs. But ended up being mercilessly killed. For a while, there was a media scare. This case had shown exactly, what we journalists are afraid of.
** NOTE: Goosebumps are starting to rise on my arms. I'm gonna continue this later. **
Update: I am sooo not gonna post the photos from the Maguindanao massacre here. If you really want to see them - go ahead. Find it on Google. I did warn you.
4. The next stop is the famous DACER-CORBITO Murder Case. Why so famous you ask? Because the one involved in this murder case are the former Philippine President Joseph Estrada and Ex-Senator Ping Lacson. Dang! I soo looked up to Ping Lacson when he was still in the PNP. And not to mention that among the senators during his time - he was one good-looking senator. Okay. Enough of that crap. Back to the topic.
5. Fifth, and the last of my list - the VIZCONDE Massacre. And once again, a famous figure was involved. Well, he wasn't the famous one but his father. But it gives the same effect, right? And oh I must not forget that Mr. Hubert Webb, the one who killed the whole Vizconde family except for the father who was out-of-the-country when the murder took place, was acquitted of the case last December 14, 2010. WTF!?
Okay. So this is really the end of this post - and not to mention the sudden urge of morbidity that had struck me,
