As compared to, say, Armageddon, where that giant asteroid (as portrayed by Jerry Bruckheimer) appears to have a personal mad-on for Bruce Willis. Perhaps true horror is "Getting the Hollywood Treatment!"

Would you mind enlightening us on why the picture is so horrific? Is she some sort of serial killer?

See here for more than you really wanted to know about these two. And most pictures of them together are fairly disturbing (in context), but the wedding photo does rather take the cake.

For something a little different, and certainly more extravagant, see some of Boris Artzybasheff's work.

The face of horror is when looking into the mirror and seeing a human face staring at you.

Theme tune played over and over again and very loud to prisoners as a form of torture by the CIA. The face of horror can be very deceiving.

You did ask. I actually met a cousin (if memory serves me) of one of the victims in university. There was a movie about it made in 2005 starring Laura Prepon of 'That 70's Show' called Karla
