Worst Roommate Ever

I'm so sad to see disparaging remarks by other reviewers about the victims in these awful cases. They are victims not actors. Their suffering was and is very real. They don't have to look or act 'the right way' to be deserving of our understanding and sympathy.

It would be amazing to think that one of America's many millionaires might help out Sonia who was one of Jason Brachman's victims. She'd worked so hard to get her apartment in Rockaway and lost everything through no fault of her own. I hope she and the other women are managing to find peace and safety in their own homes.

The makers get one part right - the documentary series focuses almost entirely on the victims' perspective - giving them all the time they need to articulate these real-life incidents. Every episode has its share of psychological horror and thriller-like twists, and it's ideal to go into the series totally blank. It really drives you nuts when you know that such crimes happen when digital technology is the strongest it's ever been. Also, some real-estate laws need to be revisited in the concerned states as early as possible. I feel like the makers added specific questions and moments in the interviews to heighten the overall dramatic effect. That's a downer on the part of both Blumhouse & Netflix, I'd say. Nonetheless, the series is one heck of a ride! The Bachman story - told in two parts - is the most thrilling of the lot.

Verdict: Worth the binge-watch!

Finished this in one sitting. Just wow. Totally not what I expected given the title of the docuseries, which actually irks me because the title makes the docuseries sound like it'd be pretty stupid but when I saw the high ratings, I gave it a shot.

All around (again, aside from the title), this is one of the best docuseries I have seen in a long time. Every single person involved with the creation, production, etc., of this show deserves an award or something. It's just brilliantly done.

The first episode's story in itself could be a entire docuseries. It was pretty chilling. One of the things I really liked was when the reenactments of the narration are animated and not real-life human actors. I hate watching human reenactments because they're just so dumb and distracting. So the animated reenactments were excellent.

I hope this becomes an actual series and not limited because I'd love to see more (true crime fans will understand!). I hadn't heard of any of these cases before and I gotta say they are probably the creepiest and most disturbing I've ever heard of. Absolutely worth the watch.

The last victim, Alex Miller was difficult to watch. Should have been narrated by other people, too much acting, difficult to really want to watch what happened due to her horrible narration and "crying"

Another solid crime mini-series delivered by Netflix. I watched the entire series in one sitting. It's a perfect mix of crime, fraud and murder. The first episode was by far the best in my opinion - talk about an innocent looking old lady that doesn't look like she'd cause any harm?! It goes to show you can never be so sure what a person is capable of, regardless of how old they are!
