House of Hammer

The meaty part of this documentary is the text messages and testimonials from the women he used. Their pain is unequivocal and the sanguine desire of this soul deprived ghoul is stomach churning. The history of where his need for depravity comes from becomes a little too entangled since it's not linear and they try to jump back to Armie sometimes as if an after thought. Three episodes doesn't seem enough since the story seems unfinished at the end of the third episode. These documentary makers need to talk to the makers of the R Kelly documentary to pick up pointers on how to finish and not seem to run out of gas after only 3 episodes.

I'm unsure what the producers want to leave us with. We're told about the two main narrators current endeavors. In 2022 there were no criminal allegation against army hammer. But the way it ended made me feel like this was just a salacious attack and maybe not a true documentary. Some might say that a documentary can be opened because the story remains to be unfolded.

Overall, the protagonist do a good job of telling the stories, and it's interesting to see how social media was such a big proponent and getting the story told. However, again it could use, perhaps less social media likes and more in-depth reporting..

I can't believe that people didn't like it... I mean it wasn't the best documentary but not because it totally destroyed Armie Hammer's life. He was clearly on a path at the least. I just think, it was a little too much on his shoulders.

If I was ever called out for being f-ed up, I should hope it would only be for MY SINS. Not the entire family. But it was interesting to hear and it gave light... but not in a compassionate way.

But he clearly did s-t. We've seen this before. The voicemails, the writings, the instagrams... not to count the multiple accounts from women.

The only reason why women make documentaries like this is because people don't listen and the justice system fails.

Why is it shaming and hurtful to blame the alleged rapist and torturer on social media but it's not hurtful to shame and blame and accuse the ones who are potential victims? Cancel culture is not as alive and well as rape culture as many of these reviews are demonstrating really exquisitely. As if losing some jobs is worse than being tortured & raped. Everyone's reputation is on the line. Treating the women as guilty liars until proven innocent and right is just as bad as what you accuse them of doing to Hammer. Hypocrites all over the place.

Second, BDSM is all about consent and communication. Abuse like this is taking the physical parts of the kink and leaving out the communication and consent. Gaslighting is not a kink. It's a psychological weapon. It's a tool to wield when you need to feel superior to someone else or because you get off on hurting others. They aren't the same. Educate yourself about kinks cause you are making yourself into a liar and gaslighter by perpetuating made up rumors and definitions yourselves.

If you didn't like the style of the doc or thought it didn't help the understanding of the situation, that's legit. All those other criticisms are less concrete than saved messages from a crazy actor.

I really didn't know much about this scandal just that it happened, but I certainly did not know the details of it.

This entire family is really sick. The stuff that Armie Hammer was into is not consensual. And that's the whole point. Also, the cannibalism stuff, the torture and abuse. YIKES. . And then you look at his father and grandfather and great grandfather and it's like - holy crap. Definitely some deals made with the Devil. It seems like. Literally.

It makes me really sad that Casey Hanmer has been cut completely out of the will. She seems like a really decent person who wants people in her family to stop being so sick.
