A study from some fine folks at the University of Virginia at Charlottesville finds that Cannibals tend to eat alone. And that is a Good Thing. For many reasons. Most of them germ related. Ugh. One obvious exception to this trend is Hannibal Lecter.... in a dinner scene from the movie Hannibal,( the sequel to Silence of the Lambs,) described below in Salon:
By now, most pop culture fans have heard about the big dinner scene in Harris' new bestseller, a scene in which Dr. Hannibal Lecter introduces a novice cannibal to the delight of eating one's enemy's brain. Forget what Sicilians say about revenge being a dish best served cold; the brains in question are not only served hot, but the victim himself is fully conscious as his thoughts are literally dished out as an appetizer. Horrifying!
