I, Psychopath 9:25pm Thursday, 25 Mar 2010 Documentary CC M Psychopathstheyll charm you, manipulate you, then ruin your life. But, not all of them with a gun or a knife.
In this extraordinary documentary, suspected psychopath Sam Vaknin goes in search of a diagnosiswas he born without a conscience?
Making a movie with a psychopath, declares I, Psychopaths director Ian Walker, is a little like poking a snake with a stick. Unwittingly, the filmmaker becomes a textbook victim.
Joined by Vaknins long-suffering but ever-loyal wife Lidija, the threesome embark on a diagnostic road trip to the worlds top experts in psychopathy in which Vaknin (and his wife) undergo a battery of rigorous psychological tests and neuroscientific experiments.
He is the worlds first civilian to willingly seek a diagnosis for psychopathy. The former corporate criminal turns out to be a way-better psychopath than any of them imagined.
By the end, Walker almost calls it quits on his own film rather than spend another day with its main subject.
