Here is the plot description for “Texas Killing Fields”:
Inspired by true events, this tense and haunting thriller follows Detective Souder (Sam Worthington) (a homicide detective in a small Texan town) and partner Detective Heigh (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) (a transplanted New York City cop) as they track a sadistic serial killer who dumps mutilated bodies in a nearby marsh called “The Killing Fields”.
Though the swampland crime scenes are outside their jurisdiction, Detective Heigh is unable to turn his back on solving the gruesome murders. Despite his partner’s warnings, he sets out to investigate the crimes. Before long, the killer changes the game and begins hunting the detectives and teasing them with possible clues at the crime scenes while always remaining one step ahead. When familiar local girl Anne (Chloë Grace Moretz) goes missing, the detectives find themselves racing against time to catch the killer and save the young girl’s life.
Directed by Ami Canaan Mann and produced by Michael Mann and Michael Jaffe, “Texas Killing Fields” also stars Jessica Chastain (“Tree of Life,” “The Help”), Jason Clarke (“Public Enemies,” FOX’s “Chicago Code”) and Stephen Graham (“Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,” HBO’s “Boardwalk Empire”).

Serial Killers
They do it for various reasons. Gacy did for sexual reasons. Bundy because he got a feeling of power & a almost a high from it.
cuz they are nutso

Why do you think serial killers do it?
The have no sense of determining right from wrong.
They have no conscience.
crazy people dont know
crazy people dont know there crazy
Serial Killers
I think there is a combination of reasons why serial killers kill. The first reason is because they can. Since it felt so good for them the first time and they got away with it they can’t help but feel that high again. Another reason is due to boredom.
Serial Killers
Serial Killers kill for the fame their killings create and they like having the power to make lots of people afraid. They also get off on it like a drug.
Seriel Killers
I think that do it to serve some need they have. That need tcould be different for each killer, so it depends on if you can get into their mind and figure it out.
Addiction
On top of the sociopathic behavior, it’s an adrenaline rush, an addiction, to the horrific behavior.
Serial killers do it
Something happen in their young age and it’ cause some kind of hated toward people
serial killers
Each one may have their own reason for why they kill. if its gender specific then an examination of how they feel about that gender and the reason behind it is worth exploring. if its anybody there may be a strong feeling regarding people in general.
