This is my version, I was interested to see the comparison between the innocent Chris we saw on the Song of Christian Video. I always thought that video carried an implicit message, one that would echo the rest of his life - one of loneliness. Either the camera was broken, it was in manual exposure mode, or the scene was just poorly lit, but what he unwittingly created was a masterpiece, essentially a child locked in his room in the darkness, talking to himself, filming himself - the exact same place he found himself years later, halted only by fire.
Finally he ends up here, caught by the police and charged. Look at the difference - Chris is who Chris is, I don't defend or support some of the crazy things he's done, I'll always especially remember the infamous Megan drawing - but there's a strange poetry in recognising the similarity between the trapped child in his bedroom filming himself talking rubbish into his camera in an attempt to cure his bordem and lonliness - to the confused, obsessed and misguided person we see before us today. I see sadness, and it's then I do feel sorry for him, he never ever had a chance. So we may laugh, we may poke fun, but like so many other children in the world, who knows how their lives might have been so incredibly different had they had the guidance they so desperately needed.
Take from this what you will, it's just my two cents.
The middle one looks too perfect for a horror documentary cover for whoever wants to make a detailed and official documentary about Chris.
