one word Eben. The fact that he found Eben, and thought that it was him in angel form and put him under his bed and would take him out at night to talk to him, that was some really twisted crap.
Funny story I dated this girl off and on, and she went away to college. Well she caught her boyfriend over there cheating on her and she called me and asked me to come over for the weekend a few weeks later (I was a good rebound guy). Anyways, we go to rent movies, because one still rented them back then, and I see the reflecting skin so I was like oh lets get this, and I tell her it is really messed up. Well we get back, one thing leads to another and we never watch the movie, so I really never got to tell her how much the movie disturbed me, just really had a high level, this movie is crazy talk at the video store. Well the weekend comes and goes, I go home which is about 2 hours away and 3 days later I get a call from her, which can pretty much be boiled down to: "What the fuck is wrong with you! Loose my number". Maybe 5 years later, we cross paths in a bar in our hometown and we are talking and one of the first things she brings up is the movie and tells me, that about 5 of her girlfriends came over to hang out and they decided to watch it as she had not returned it yet. She said the most awkward part was her explaining to her friends that she had not selected the movie but this guy, that lives 2 hours away who she does this on again, off again thing with was over and picked it out. They pretty much convinced her that I was a serial killer for having selected that movie for viewing. At the bar, I did get to relay to her, my experience of first watching it, and that I had planned to explain to her that the movie was fucked up and had a profound impact on me, as I did not have a lot of empathy for people in my teens and 20's and I had kind of did her shitty after our first round of dating. Instead I got the cold hand due to the possibility that I could have been a serial killer. I figure it was Karma having her laugh, at my expense.
