Gods perverse
Wickeds at my side

Taken From "Day Of Suffering" (Blessed Are The Sick)
something horrible or morbid in the written word, on film, or in an image, that explains itself in a way you can understand and/or appreciate. creating something horrible or morbid that is not simply to shock, scare, or disgust people.
Some of Edgar Allen Poe's work, like the Cask of Amontillado, had a sort of morbid vailidity behind it. (or) I saw that horror movie, Final Destination, and it seemed that most of the killings were done to shock people, it lacked morbid validity compared to a movie like Silence of the Lambs.
