The bull shaped human cooker was featured in the movie "Immortals". I am listening to a new history podcast "History on Fire", highly recommend. The narrator described a Persian torture/execution method. They place the victim covered in honey in a wooden box allowing the arms and legs to stick out. They left the victim outside and let the bugs eat him alive. The torture lasted for two weeks.

But today, a victim is placed in front of his own TV, is allowed to select programs that brainwash him into endless hours of dementia and ignorance, until he dies from political torture and lies after paying taxes for services no one can afford.

Probably a bit faster then the Spanish Chain method - victim tied to stake and wrapped in ship chains (6 inch or better links) chains end in central bonfire ... heat travels, victim cooks slowly.

One could add a few rubber tire necklaces and substitute a creosote post for a modern variation.

This isn't new but I can't remember from where I read/saw it. Oh well.
Those folks are working with the Prince of Darkness, the Evil One.

Dunno if it was based on facts, but a PBS movie about Queen Elizabeth and showed a part where some guys tried to overthrow her regime.

They were caught and turned over to the tender mercies of the Guys Who Run The Dungeons. There was a chilling scene where she tells the head man, “Think up something new”.
