Ok. So, let me explain why this sucks.

-The protagonist is an annoying piece of shit. Yes, fictional characters can be extremely flawed and still be likeable, just watch "BoJack Horseman" or "F Is For Family". But that doesn't appply here. For fuck's sake, guy described being single in his 30's is as bad as mental illness! How the hell did that get pass you?

-The dating part was unnecessary. The majority of the story barely had anything to do with dating. Shit started happening after the wedding. The "dating game" part could cut out, and that wouldn't hurt the plot.

-Gore for the sake of gore is just cheap. Horror, isn't one thing. To make it work it needs a combination of several negative emotions including dread, fear, and disgust. Over-reliance on shock and disgust, as said earlier, is cheap, not to mentional unclassy. Some of the best horror stories/movies don't even feature a lot of gore.

What this piece offends me with is it's considerable lack of professionalism, not the graphic descriptions of murder. I've seen "A Serbian Film" for fuck's sake.

Last thing, "excellent pasta"? No offense, but how many pastas have you read, three? This is cancerous.
