The Squid Game is not as good as they say. The idea is good, this series shows the elite as perverts in quite realistic way. The problem is the lazy writing. It looks like the author had the right idea, but was unable to elaborate it. Apart of the depiction of cruel games with human lives, this series goes nowhere. I think those who are praising it, are people unable of critical thinking, liking it only for the bold idea.

They are just like Serial Killers, especially the ones that kidnap & enslave victims for a long period of time, except they are above the law. That element of psychological anguish, where the victims are tempted with false hope, or persuaded/ coerced into acting like a savage murderous animal, or where victims are forced to choose between being tortured and horrifically killing someone/ something they love, those elements are true.

That's why I hate all those 'Horror' movies with torture, gore and shit like that. I never watched them. I was first introduced to such 'possibilities' when I read about Serial Killer cases and the testimonies of the victims of SRA, so it's never entertainment for me. I am reminded how, in all of human history, someone innocent probably suffered something like that.
