This is the most repetitive documentary I've ever tried to watch. It could easily have been a decent one hour documentary, but instead it repeats the same clips over and over again to the point where it just becomes unwatchable.

Love this series. True crime presentented in docudrama style and surprisingly well made too. I'm hooked. It really does show the best and worst in humanity at the same time. The fact that some of the worst (greed, avarice, addictions) and the best (honesty, loyalty, love) can clash and be at odds for years and even decades before truth and justice prevail is both uplifting and human faith restoring. I watched a couple on Youtube, then found more on Prime and will watch every episode I can find. Also think Christopher Mason is a great host and snappy dresser. This will be a cult classic series soon!
Cliche ridden, predictable nonsense. Everything in this film has been done a hundred times before. It mixes bits of a dozen or so better films into a messy stew that becomes more laughable and less tolerable as it drags on. The costumes and sets are decent enough, but the script, plot and acting get very silly. If you've never seen a vampire film before then it might be entertaining, but it steals so much that anyone who is already a fan of the genre will see everything coming a mile off. On top of all this is an odd undertone of hugely outdated anti-collonialism which seems irrelevant and out of step with the rest of the tone.
