Scorn

Darren Hueneman was a seventeen year old high school student when he recruited two fellow students to murder his mother and grandmother. Scorn is a chilling journey into Darren's heart and mind. It begins in 1991 in Oak Bay, a well-to-do suburb of Victoria B.C. Darren is a charismatic boy whose fantasies of grandeur and imperial self-image are indulged by the women who raised him. Bored and frustrated with restrictions of his middle class life, Darren fantasizes with his friends about invading Brunei and installing himself as divine ruler. The only thing standing in their way is the lack of funds. His life takes a turn when he is cast as the lead in his school's production of Albert Camus' "Caligula". Playing the Roman emperor, Darren finds a voice for his appetite for destruction and a justification for his scorn. In embracing Caligula, a character who wagers all in a challenge to fate, Darren thrusts himself into a world where the moral codes of our society do not apply...
