Guy kills wife's dad, Bakes him into meat pies

[VanTesla]

Either he's a huge musical theatre fan or just a very disturbed individual. Maybe both. Whatever the reason, murdering someone and baking them in to meat pies isn't original, but it is ghastly. (Annnd, possibly delicious?)

It's a real life Sweeney Todd but without all the annoying singing. The Daily Mail UK reports that a Russian cafe owner has been arrested on suspicion of murdering his father-in-law, grinding up his flesh, and possibly serving him up in as many as "two dozen" meat pies.

Moscow authorities haven't released the names of alleged murderer or his delicious victim. We do know that this seems to be a regular occurrence in Russia. In 2009 two cannibals killed and then ate parts of a 16-year old girl. Recently, another cook killed a guy and made sausages and meatballs from his corpse. So if you visit Russia and have a hankering for a savory pastry, we humbly suggest you visit the frozen section of the local supermarkets.

Disturbing this is. At least it wasn't USA or Japan this time >_>

Also inb4 bad soviet Russia jokes.

My question: Was he a former barber?

That's horrible.

Cannibalism stories always make my stomach queasy. There's just something so.... gross about them. Especially when it is done by a psycho.

Are you saying that there are cannabalists who are not psycho?

"...or his delicious victim..."

I couldn't help but find that line ridiculously funny.

No. I'd say pretty much all Cannibals are a bit psycho.

The baker's name was Wyman Manderly, and the vicitm's last name was Frey!

Gee, I wonder where I saw this before...

The news article reminded me I baked someone's daughter into Haggis.

 

[FamoFunk]

Whoa. I bet his Wife is a bit pissed, possibly not his Wife any more?

 

[Cain_Zeros]

Wait, did Gizmodo call the singing in Sweeney Todd annoying? It's about as unoffensive in terms of willing suspension of disbelief as a musical can get, and the actual soundtrack is nothing short of amazing.

That's really the thing that stood out to me too, as messed up as that is. I mean, yeah, it's horrible that someone actually made human pies, but I came in here ready to make a Sweeney Todd reference and then I see that...

For all the mention of Sweeney Todd, Titus Andronicus and Cupcakes, it seems people forgot about Fried Green Tomatoes.

What, is there some movie by the name that deals with cannibalism or something? Because to me, "fried green tomatoes" refers to literal unripe tomatoes that have been battered and fried. It's a Southern thing, and boy is it delicious.

...What. Just... WHAT.

And will people please stop bringing up "Cupcakes"?! That fic was bad enough... (Sweeney Todd references I'm okay with, though.)

Spoiler Tagging in case you actually want to watch the movie or read the book.
It's a novel (full title: Fried Green Tomatoes at The Whistle Stop Cafe, was also made into a movie simply titled Fried Green Tomatoes) by Fannie Flagg about two women in the era of the Great Depression who became lifelong friends.

Spoiler

One of the women had a very abusive husband who tried to kidnap their child, and during the struggle they accidentally killed him. Other people in the town helped them cover it up, and, well.. I'll let this quote speak for itself.

Spoiler

"Sipsey had killed Frank with a cast-iron skillet while trying to stop him from kidnapping Buddy Jr. Big George then barbecued Frank's body and served it to the Georgia police officer who was searching for Frank." - from the Wikipedia article

Sounds gruesome, but there's a lot more to the story than just this particular moment. It was an enjoyable read and an interesting watch. Probably one of Kathy Bate's best movies other than Misery.

according to the tribes of Papua New Guinea, human tastes like sweet pork.

yeah this is pretty fucked up. ok MAJORLY fucked up. Im pretty sure if i found out that i had eaten human id go barf uncontrollably.

 

[I Max95]

Ugh. Why would you even want to eat people? We taste horrible and you can contract Kuru (the "cannibal shakes") that can kill you within a few months.

Personally I think these kind of people should be slummed into the same block as child molesters. This is just sick.

child molestors?...no

thats too good for them

 

[AstylahAthrys]

What. The. Fuck.

That's just disturbing. I might have to go vegetarian for awhile after reading this. I might be distrusting of meats for awhile.
