Torture porn

Can somebody PLEASE explain to me the appeal of torture movies? We're watching "Notting Hill" on TV - a freakin' romantic comedy, for heaven's sake - and there have been ads for "The Strangers" on DVD and "Saw V" opening on Friday. Saw V? As in freakin' FIVE? Are you joking me? Unbelievably, the Red Cross is promoting Saw V - if you give blood during (this month? this week? not sure) you can get a $2 coupon to go see this abomination.

Again, if anyone ever reads this, please fill me in on any possible reasons a sane human being would pay good money to watch this stuff.
