100 Reasons David Fincher Might Have Made the Wrong Facebook Movie

Not to make light of a situation in which three teens have died, seriously, but holy crap have you heard about these Facebook "hit lists" in the small Colombian town of Puerto Asis? The ones comprising 100 names now reportedly targeted by a shadowy killer promising to murder any and all still remaining in the village this week? It's like a movie -- like several movies made by one guy, in fact.

And you know some screenwriter at some Starbucks somewhere is outlining another adaptation as we speak -- and as investigators try to sort out who composed the list and why. Authorities note that a notorious criminal gang and a group of Marxist guerrillas operate out of the area where two young men perished Aug. 15. Two days later a 69-person list was posted to Facebook; it "gave the people named three days to leave the town of Puerto Asis or be executed." Then came another list of 31 alleged targets (all women) and another shooting death Aug. 20. That incident had a wounded survivor as well.

It's basically Zodiac meets The Social Network (with The Ring in there, too, I suppose). And panic is ensuing on Twitter as well. Naturally Facebook reps aren't commenting. Art, life, etc. Insane.
