The investigation

An interesting place to start in this case but it works really well for establishing the storyline and people involved. The interviews were relevant and good use of archival footage.

Frustrating!

Warning: Spoilers
It is a really well known case. People who consume this theme, real crime, knows him. And I know why Netflix choose him and the other killer.. they want views.

I usually watch youtube videos made by youtubers (crimetubers?) that usually are well made, and the last ones I noticed how interesting were the videos regarding crimes that nobody knew about.

So, this, we know, but I wanted to see something and watched the first episode.

I don't like when they focus totally on the killer. I like a good balance between killer and victim/s. They had a history, but so the killers. I like to know what happened to them to make them the trash of society. Usually a really broken home.

I liked the old photographs from that time. It was a good context.

At 25 minutes we realized John, this psychopath, was homosexual but wouldn't accept it, as well as a pedophile and a rapist.

Didn't know about what he did to that young man. He was sitting there for the interview, all those years later, remembering the nightmare.

I was expecting the clown part of his life but not in this episode, let's see in the next one.

Really sick individual. Taking aside the part of the rapes and tortures, we all know some charismatic person that has many followers who admire him/her, but we all know side B, even tho they don't believe in us. So, more common than you may think, that's why his constant slipping from police while he was doing these heinous acts was frustrating to say the least.
