Gripping, thoughtful, and meaningful mystery.
Terrifying and heartbreaking. What this slow-burning doc does is to remind us to keep our windows locked and to never give up fighting.
Heart breaking story about obsession…loss and Murder. Not for sensitive folks
really well put together and a chilling story never fails to amaze me
A deeply respectful, heartfelt and captivating documentary series. I could tell everyone involved cared and that's what sets it apart for me
Exactly how the book was made and very interesting to hear from the victims and to hear Michelle McNamaras story. Chilling and interesting.
Incredible how this came together - great watch
It is definitely more about Michelle Mcnamara than about true crime, but it was still an enjoyable docuseries
You can find better documentaries then this one. I did like the idea that they had but it was just too slow for me personally.
Great crime doc with just enough of a touching personal side. Feels like you're on the journey with her.
