I wrote a short essay on A Kiss Before Dying called "The Charming Psychopath."

The Hare Psychopathy Checklist lists 20 common traits of psychopaths. Bud possesses nearly all of these traits.

I am open to any constructive feedback.

Interesting essay, but like you said, "short". I wish it had been longer.
