10.25.06Netflix I was under the impression that this one small town in rural Wisconsin had some sort of freak rash of deaths and killings and whatnot, like it's a special occurance and that's why there was the book and movie... and maybe it is but from what I get out of the movie it's more like just a random town picked to showcase the way it was back in 1890. I mean, there are murders and suicides and insanity now, what's to mean it was any different back then? I don't know... maybe I'm missing it and the true story is the whole town died out or something but it seemed to me it's just a collection of news stories about people dying. oh well.
