Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer
Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer
2021 | Crime, Documentary, Mystery
Normally, Netflix's best content is their true crime documentaries... Between this one and the Hotel Cecil one, they're definitively going downhill.
This one just put me off, it wasn't really all that engaging, and it was a little boring. The Night Stalker is one creepy dude, and that's what kept me watching.
Overall, it was unremarkable, non-engaging, and a little bit of a waste of my time.

"If every story is in one way or another a mystery, so too every story is a crime of pretend that ends with the punishment of the actual. Raskolnikov is more terrifyingly real to me than almost anyone I’ve known. No surprise that when I visited St. Petersburg, I headed straight for the writer’s museum on Kuznechny Lane, but Raskolnikov was nowhere there. He was in my gut."

"I think In The Heat Of The Night was one of the most influential films on me. Looking back now, I can see how influential it was on my screenwriting, because here you have what looks to be a crime procedural, and it’s actually a study in race and loneliness, and a perception of an era. So, I think that, that was one of the most influential films."
