YMMV / Fatal Attractions (2010)

  • Don't Shoot the Message: While the show does have some pretty flagrant Double Standard for reptiles and a questionable tone, many exotic animal experts think the message of responsible pet ownership is an admirable one.
  • Narm: Some of the deaths can be seen as this. In particular was one episode where a man is killed by a hyena which contained Stock Sound Effects making it sound more like something out of a cartoon than a reenactment of a horrific death.
  • Nightmare Fuel: On the other extreme, some of the victims' deaths and their descriptions can be quite horrifying.
  • Tear Jerker:
    • The reenactment of Anita Finch's death. Between the music, the terrified resignation in her eyes, and the theory that she avoided seeking help out of a desire to protect her snakes (who were euthanized anyway), it's very hard to watch.
    • The fact that many of the animals featured are killed just for following their natural instincts and being what they are. What's sadder is that most of them are killed to protect the public's safety and/or to save the life of someone they've attacked; these situations could have been avoided had the animals' owners actually shown responsibility and common sense.
