    Good but disjointed

    This could have been a great documentary but it lacks the necessary focus: the victims and the killer fade somewhat into background and leave the spotlight to an excessive number of scattered interviews.

    I respect the choice of giving a voice to families and survivors, but making a documentary about a serial killer without explaining adequately his MO, genesis and motives, doesn't really cut it.

    A good story but bad documentary!

    The way the two directors handled the documentary was awful and they could have done better if they only focused on the story and not sexism! You lose interest while watching out of boredom. I'm a huge fan of serial killers documentaries and this is the worst one I have ever seen so far.

    A good story, a little hard to follow.

    I originally watched this back when I had Covid, and I blamed the virus for my struggles to follow this, so I decided to watch it again, and whilst it is a fascinating story, it is really hard to follow. It feels really disjointed, and somehow it feels a little incomplete.

    The interviews are moving, and very revealing, you learn so much from the relatives.

    This may have worked better if it had been done in installments, giving focus to the crime, the attacker, the database issues etc.

    A good watch, but bard to follow, 6/10.

    Amazing but a little too lengthy

    It's an amazing documentary which has everything to hold your attention.

    Only one thing .....the narrative are stretched too far and could have been received better of the running time / length was shorter.

    Bad Editing

    Interesting interviews but the documentary itself is very shoddy. The editing is so terrible it's nearly unwatchable.
