| Bereavement | comment |
Bereavement is a 2010 horror film directed by Stevan Mena, starring Michael Biehn, Alexandra Daddario, Brett Rickaby, John Savage, and Nolan Gerard Funk. It serves as a prequel to Mena's 2004 independent film Malevolence.In 1989, Martin Bristol, a young boy diagnosed with congenital insensitivity to pain, is abducted from his home by serial killer Graham Sutter (Rickaby), who keeps Martin captive in his basement, forcing the boy to watch him mutilate his many victims. Five years later, Allison Miller (Daddario), a teenage girl who lost her parents, goes to live with her uncle Jonathan (Biehn) and his family, and she soon crosses paths with Sutter and Martin. | |

Feel No Pain | |
| Bereavement / int_19211122 | comment |
Feel No Pain: Martin has CIPA, which caused Sutter to fixate on him as he believed Martin was soulless because of it. Which becomes a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy as Martin does snap and become a Serial Killer, but only because of Sutter's horrific abuse. | |

| Bereavement / int_1e584efa | comment |
Cruel and Unusual Death: Most of Sutter's victims meet grisly ends, but of particular note is Melissa who is burned alive in an oven while her leg is impaled on a meat hook. Sutter himself is later chopped to pieces bit-by-bit with an axe. | |

The Farmer and the Viper: Allison’s concern over Martin leads directly to her capture when she tries to help him. Despite this, she still tries to rescue him, bringing him with her when she escapes. In turn, he stabs her to death and kills her cousin before returning to the slaughter house to finish Sutter off. | |
