Beast of Bangalore: Indian Predator

This documentary series was very difficult to go through, not because it was disturbing, but more so because I was in constant disbelief of the incompetency of the Indian police system and also how the activist speakers would sneak in every now and then to make it about something else entirely.

This above everything should be about spreading awareness about these kind of psychopaths, creating a better environment for sexual victims so they feel comfortable coming forward and making sure such incompetent people are never in power of position who can blame women for such things instead of the criminals.

The best thing this documentary does is expose how poor the justice system truly is, show how the mentality of the people in India is still a century behind and Women are trapped in an invisible cage.

Not to mention the amount of times he was allowed to escape and in a way those lead to more murders. The murders he committed after running away, the blood of those victims' are in the police officers hand just as much as the killers.

The case in reality was definitely really shameful. However, the series fails to give us goosebumps. The thrill and fear doesn't comes in mind that much because they just keep talking and talking each minute. I guess this is what documentary is probably. Also, everyone is contradicting each other, it creates confusion and makes it boring to watch. I never watched any documentary before but this doesn't gives that much details. Do not think that I have no problem with what happened in reality. I am just talking about this series, nothing to do with reality. In fact, I believe he should have been sentenced to death.

Beast of Bangalore: Indian Predator 2022 is based on true events happened in India. This series is really nice to watch. It tells the story of dark thing happened in India. I will really recommend it to anyone to watch. It is okay to watch and yeah if you are looking for a series based on true story this will be best for you to watch. I will definitely recommend it to anyone. Everything was nice and good in the shooting videography audio everything was good. This type of series should be continued. We can be aware of that. So yeah you should watch it.

After the success of Murder in a Courtroom, The Indian Predator series returns fairly quickly, with this, Beast of Bangalore, a sadistic rapist and killer that terrorised women for several years.

I really enjoyed the previous series, this one however was poor in contrast, a totally disappointing contrast. The three episodes could genuinely have been condensed down into an hour long production, this was painfully stretched out.

We actually learn very, very little Bout Umesh Reddy, his motivation, background, we just really get opinions of how his crimes affected society, it's too narrow.

I don't mean to knock the story, it's fascinating, but the way it's told here, is very poor, crimes against women, however no women are interviewed in the first two episodes, so we only get the viewpoint of the men involved in the case, there is no mention of the victims, just sketchy information about the actual miscreant.

Only episode three offers any significant input, but it really is such a dreary, lifeless production, it's guilty of the worst thing, it's boring, I couldn't binge watch it, I had to take regular breaks, as concentrating on it was hard work.

One of the worst Netflix documentary series to date, 3/10.

Indian Predator: Beast of Bangalore

A guy from a village in Karnataka, lives in Bangalore, and has a weird kind of fetish of collecting women's undergarments, his name was Umesh Reddy. He also attacked many women and assaulted them sexually. One of those women became mentally disturbed, she couldn't even say anything in her defense.

Later on, the court acquits him in most of those cases on the basis of lack of proper evidence. The evidence police found through investigation wasn't acceptable in court and the kind of evidence the court wanted could not be made available. During investigation and trial, he was successful in escaping many times from police's custody.

He gets a death sentence but finally it gets converted to life imprisonment and he is still behind bars.
