Abstract
Fascinacija nad serijskimi morilci se je pojavila v prejšnjem stoletju, ko je bilo v Združenih državah Amerike sočasno aktivnih več serijskih morilcev. Zasluge se tukaj lahko pripišejo množičnim medijem, zlasti časnikom, ki so ob poročanju novic o umorih uporabljali senzacionalizem v želji, da bi čim več ljudi kupilo in bralo njihov časnik. Na drugi strani pa so igrani filmi, ki velikokrat želijo na svojevrsten način prikazati življenje serijskega morilca, umore oz. kaj je bil povod za takšna kruta dejanja. Skozi analizo časopisnih člankov in izbranih igranih filmov o Tedu Bundyju, Jefferyju Dahmerju, Zodiacu in Davidu Berkowitzu smo prišli do ugotovitve, da je največ člankov nastalo v času odkritja serijskega morilca, njegove aretacije in kasneje smrti. Pri igranih filmih smo ugotovili, da so se režiserji večinoma držali dejstev, pri tem pa si pustili kreativno svobodo za unikaten prikaz serijskega morilca in njegovih tegob ter umorov.

Secondary title: |
Media representation of American serial killers in feature films |
Secondary abstract: |
The fascination with serial killers emerged in the last century when several serial killers were active in the USA at the same time. Credit for this can be given to the mass media, especially newspapers, which used sensationalism when reporting news of murders to get as many people as possible to buy and read their newspapers. On the other hand, there are feature films, which often seek to portray, in a unique way, the life of a serial killer, the murders or what was the trigger for such atrocious acts. Through the analysis of newspaper articles and selected feature films about Ted Bundy, Jeffery Dahmer, Zodiac, and David Berkowitz, we have concluded that most of the articles were written at the time of the discovery of the serial killer and his arrest or subsequent death. In the case of the feature films, we found that the directors mostly stuck to the facts, leaving themselves the creative freedom to uniquely portray the serial killer and his travails and murders. |
