Leonard Lake and Charles Ng have to be among the worst of the worst. Finding their common interest as survivalists, the friends prepared for the apocalypse and how they would survive it. As part of this, they began kidnapping women who would help them repopulate the world after. But they didn't want these women to love and respect. They wanted them as slaves, to rape and torture... which unfortunately escalated to murder.
