If you enjoy true life crime documentary's then this is definitely something you should watch. It's a borderline unbelievable tale but one that will definitely stick in your mind, the documentary itself has a decent amount of archive footage and few reenactments which makes for a much more compelling watch. Even the main protagonist is interviewed.
