Cool.

What about you?

What's your story?

My story, um...

I am what is commonly

known as a serial killer.

Um, I don't love

that nomenclature.

I sort of consider

myself a murderer,

but, uh, my numbers are such that I'm

now classified as a serial killer.

- Serial killer?

- Yes, I am a killer.

I have killed 39 people.

This is something

that I love to do.

It's the greatest job

in the world.

That's what I'm built to do.

Um, but I'm also

turning 40 this year,

which is like, grays in the

beards, a lot of stuff happening,

and it's making me

a little mid-lifey,

and it's kind of set me

into a little bit of a spiral.

And I think I f***ed

myself in the head.

I don't trust

my instincts anymore,

and I feel like I may have

lost what made me great.

There was a time in my life when

I would meet a man at a bar

and I would take him outside

and lay him on the floor,

and I would put a knife

in his chest and cut him open.

And... open his insides,

and the universe would reveal

itself to me, and it was beautiful.

And I felt part of every time and every

place that had ever existed. It...

It was my religion.

But now, it...

It's like a job.

And it makes me

really f***ing sad.

And I don't wanna get emotional,

but, um, I'm having a hard time.

But then,

I read an article about

the great Francis Ford Coppola.

He said something that

blew my f***ing mind.

He said, "I've not made an original

film since the conversation in 1974.

I am not sure I'm capable of it,

but I really wanna

keep trying."

And then it hit me

like a sack of bricks.

Here's a man who's in the middle

of his artistic decline...

Is he running from it?

No, he's embracing it.

So, I'm like...

What am I doing, trying to make

the films that I used to make?

What if I embrace

where I'm at right now?

What if I make a documentary?

And this is where you come in.

A documentary about the world's

most prolific serial killer

that no one knows about.

A documentary that

you and I make here,

tonight.

I mean, like,

I realize I'm throwing

a lot at you.

You haven't even had the chance

to finish your green smoothie,

so if you wanna bail,

I completely understand.

Take your money,

no hard feelings.

I understand.

But if you don't...

And I really hope you don't...

I can offer you two things.

Firstly, I won't kill you

over the next 24 hours.

That would be

counter-productive.

And secondly,

I will give you the deepest

personal access into my soul

that you could possibly imagine.

I will rip myself open

and let you see

every last inch of me.

And together, I believe

we will make magic.

But you gotta be into it.

I'm into it.

Are you just saying you're into
