A critical fumble system is in use at many tables including my own. No where near as extreme a thing as you believe it to be.
I'm familiar with the system, it's in the rulebook. It's his decisions on how to handle it by attacking another brand new player that I disliked, especially since that sort of thing was common for him and he seemed to get enjoyment from it. If you as a DM get enjoyment from killing your players then you're not the DM for me. I've played D&D off and on for 35 years, and those were the only two DMs I've played with that were actively trying to kill their players. Not my thing, which is why I don't play there anymore.
