2003, Madrid, a killer leaves a calling card at the crime scene, a playing card.
It's a fascinating case, a series of brutal murders, a case that led to a media frenzy and a wave of public fear. It's a very bizarre story, with some surprising revelations.
After episodes one and two, I was set to roast this series, but episode three however is something of a turnaround, and serves as a very interesting, pretty satisfying conclusion.
It's in its natural Spanish, so if you're lucky enough to speak some, you'll have a better time of it, the dubbing jars at times.
Lots of interesting footage, but there's just too much of it, you will feel bombarded.
At three episodes, it's too long, this should have been a ninety minute one off production, episodes one and two are heavily padded out, and both seem over produced.
The interviews are very short, so for the casual viewer it seems to jump rapidly from one scene to the next, it's a frantic pace, it would have worked so much better if they'd just toned it down a few notches.
6/10.
