Netflix once again delivers for fans of real life crime documentaries. This five part series tells us of four different criminals, with various crimes, including fraud and murder, the only thing linking the stories, is a tenuous story about a room mate link.
The first episode blew me away, the most shocking story of the lot, the case of Dorothea Puente, it's enough to give you nightmares for a month. Talk about somebody not looking like they could cause harm to anyone.
It's a well produced series, each has some intriguing interviews, and some decent animation which helps tell the story.
I wonder if a second series will follow, I'm sure there's enough demand, and material.
You may well, like I did, watch each episode, and wonder how on earth the victims allowed themselves to be put into such situations, but when you're desperate for help, financial or otherwise, you tend to believe the best in people. Hindsight is a wonderful thing I guess.
Overall, it's a good watch. 8/10.
