Rarely the monsters were perfectly comprehensible. The first examples of science fiction explored the conflict that arises when humans find the unknown. However, it seems its themes are slowly drifting from the orld around Humanity to Humanity itself. Various artists find fascinating the possibility of imagining and exploring how the future shall be, what lies beyond the stars and what other sentient beings could be. Science is one of the great themes inside fiction. The hope that our fauls, no matter how big, can be erased by our virtous, no matter ho small, that the abyss may not be without bottom, and that we can always look in the mirror and say “I am not completely bad. He represents a perverted hope that no corruption can be complete.Īnd perhaps that is his most dangerous feature. Eve being a prisoner he captivates the heart of one woman. Even being a cannibal he manages to create beauty in its art. But even being a monster and being unapologetic about it, he manages to be charming. Of that there can be no doubt n and out of the story. He manipulates Dolarhyde into maiming Graham and seduces Clarice Starling, making her renounce her career, her principles, her family and almost her identity by brainwashing her.īut in my opinion what makes Hannibal alluring is hope. His evil his of such potency, he can not only mutilate the body of its victims but also influence and twist their very minds to suit his needs.

He is free in the most raw and inconsiderate sense of the world: free to punish who he likes those who he thinks offend them, the “rude”, free of conscience and free of guilt itself. Hannibal crosses the ultimate threshold of monstrosity and the last boundary. It reaches beyond the rational fear of death and in the subconscious repugnance of eating another human being. Cannibalism is one of Humanity’s greatest taboos because it fuses two of the greatest evils: murder and desecration. The second point is doubtlessly his malignant nature.
