Aileen Wuornos: American Boogeywoman

For anyone even vaguely interested in the real story - or even interested in real writing and acting - do yourself a favour and watch Monster (2003).

In the 2003 movie, the producers/writers/director went to great lengths to make sure the movie was guided by real facts, and picked a cast capable of delivering performances so strong that at times it seemed more like a documentary.

American Boogeywoman by contrast delivers little more than you'd expect to find in gossip magazines, with production/writing/acting more at home in "Days of Our Lives" than in a movie.

Seriously, give this one a miss.

This film is based on the delusional ramblings of Aileen when she was on death row. Most of the film is FICTION...but it is a recreation of what SHE said actually happened. Therefore...take it for what it is. It isn't a biography, and it isn't based on facts. It gives you a glimpse into the mind of a serial killer who was either a compulsive liar, or had lost touch with reality. Or perhaps a little bit of both.

I give it 7 stars for the worthy effort of the actors, primarily Peyton List. Otherwise, I wouldn't have rated it so high.

Idolize the serial killer,bad production and frilling acting.best of all short playtime.dont make more,br tgom.

Peyton List is a beautiful young actress who was really good in the Kobra Kai series. Hopefully this movie will become known as the low point in her budding career, cause she can only go up from this disaster. Hope to see much more of her in the future.

Love you, Peyton ---- but I'm really embarrassed for you.

Because the truth wasn't bad enough they had to fabricate large parts of the story? Whoever made this apparently flunked out of film school. The writing, acting and cinematography are terrible.
