Chris Watts: Confessions of a Killer

Chris is a total disgusting monster, but if you really look into this case you know Nichol was in on it for sure and this movie made her out to be another victim, no way.

She lied dozens of times and changed her story several times No alibi Phone pinged near his house at time of the murders Deleted tons of evidence off her phone Told Chris to delete stuff off his phone and pawn her wedding ring Helped plan the attempted miscarriage w/ oxy Knew about the entire Watts family before Chris even met her, and before she even started working for Chris's company.

Lied about not knowing he was married or that she was pregnant.

Had tons of very damning google searches from what they did recover from her phone.

Those are just a few things, I highly encourage people to look into her. This movie disgraces the victims by making her seem like a saint.

RIP Shanann, Bella, Celeste, and Nico.

This Lifetime film serves one purpose only and that is to illustrate how one man who was a husband, a father and an adulterer committed four (4) heinous murders. If the actual four (4) murders was not enough Chris Watts disposed of his entire families bodies as if they were garbage by burying them where he believed they never would be found. But like most adulterers and criminals, their cumulative lies to the people and family that surround them, the truth is rather easy to put the puzzle together for any good detectives.

I understand why most people would not consider this Lifetime film to be "entertaining" as any father who would commit such heinous acts should automatically be put to death, no "Ifs", "Ands", or "Buts". This film rather satisfies the urge to understand how "any man" could murder his entire family and curiosity how he did it and in his mind the one question that needs to be answered is "WHY?"

I will let the medical professionals and forensic criminal investigators provide us with that answer another day, but for now, I was satisfied to know the families bodies (what was left of them) were recovered a few days after their reported disappearance. Chris watts admitted to burying his pregnant wife and daughters at the place of his employment at Anadarko Petroleum, on August 16. He was fired on August 15, the day of his arrest. The girls' bodies were found hidden in oil tanks. Shanann and the unborn Nico were buried in a shallow grave nearby.

As this is only a ninety (90) minute movie we really should not expect to glean too much factual information into the head of the murderer Chris Watts, but I would have preferred if the producers would have depicted this devil of a man as being soulless without a conscience, and instead the film almost normalizes these murders as just another entertaining made for TV film.

I give it an IMDB rating of 6 out of 10 as it did answer some basic questions that were lingering about the Watts family murders.

I've been a visitor of IMDB for 13 years, and have never found a reason to join/comment as others have said what needs to be said...But this.. two years after a disgusting massacre occurs, so does this documentary. No reason, purpose, dignity or integrity. I do not recommend this to anyone, what is the point?? As someone who studies serial/heinous cases, this shouldn't have been made. The agenda behind this is to normalize it, when this happens daily. Think about it. Sending whoever reads this light and big love.

Awful representation of an innocent woman, awful hints at excuses for watts' behaviour. Awful depiction of watts as some kind of character it almost seems like they want us to like. Because they sure didnt want us to like his poor, innocent wife!! Awful timing. Completely disrespectful. Her poor family must be so upset. There have been far better films produced about killers where the psychology is thoroughly explored and the victims more honorably portrayed. This just reeked of a rush to make money as fast as possible. Almost just a copy of the police bodycam footage and stuff with nothing new added. Awful.

Trash! No respect for the family or the community where this happened.
