No, the punishment need not be so harsh just to satisfy one's lust for revenge or a misguided sense of justice. Life sentence is harsh enough and keeps them away from people they would pose a continuous threat to.
Resorting to severe measures such as castration (or death penalty) is not going to undo what they did to their victims, and all this does is continue to encourage a sense of barbarity that we (as civilized people) should've gone away with a long time ago.
