Jeffrey Dahmer: The Secret Life is an American true crime film, released in 1993. It starred Carl Crew as Jeffrey Dahmer, an American serial killer, necrophile and cannibal.
The movie is a first hand account of Dahmers lifestyle as a serial killer. When he was finally caught, it was revealed that his apartment was a chamber of horrors, where he tortured his young victims to death, then sliced up the bodies and stored the parts in his freezer, among other places. The Secret Life was produced several years before Dahmer was himself murdered in prison.
Famous quotes containing the words secret and/or life:
“I’ve been cursed for delving into the mysteries of life. Perhaps death is sacred, and I’ve profaned it. Oh, what a wonderful vision it was. I dreamed of being the first to give to the world the secret that God is so jealous of, the formula for life. Think of the power, to create a man. And I did, I did it, I created a man. And who knows, in time I could have trained him to do my will. I could have bred a race, I might even have found the secret of eternal life.”
—William Hurlbut (1883–?)
“When once a certain class of people has been placed by the temporal and spiritual authorities outside the ranks of those whose life has value, then nothing comes more naturally to men than murder.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)
