Well, my secret aspiration is to write murder mysteries, and get stinking rich. So maybe I will rent the movie, I could maybe get some ideas. I might try dissolving steak, see if it actually worked, hate to have people think I was slip-shod in my research. If you think I am being gruesome, you ought to read a forensic pathology book sometime. Yow. Everything from how to read gunshot wounds to how to determine if someone was strangled. I checked out a couple from the college medical library when I was in law school, during Trial Advocacy - - the mock trial was about whether a man committed suicide, or was it accidental, for purposes of whether the widow got the insurance money. Don't look at one of those books unless you have a strong stomach. I do have a strong stomach, my dad was in dental school when I was a kid, I have posted before about his using my mother's favorite pot to boil a cat scapula for anatomy class. We grew up very matter-of-fact about the grittier side of life.

Yes, be prepared - the smell of meat&lye will knock a buzzard flat at fifty feet. Worse than unchecked rot even.
