Netflix Documentary Review: I AM A KILLER




Google summary

Profiling prisoners convicted of capital murder and sentenced to death. Recounting the events that led up to their crime, the killers reveal their motivations and how they now view their actions, after time spent on death row.

MY REVIEW

I have watched 10 episodes of this serious, each with a different murderer with his own story. They bring you in and you almost feel compassionate for what they are going through. You feel bad for them, you see clearly their side of the story. You forget why they are there and what terrible crime they have done. No matter how serious the crime you are sad for them.

THEN
 You hear the prosecutors explanation and the victims family and friends side and you feel absolutely guilty that you could ever take the side of a murderer. This series was so well produced and written to bring you in that close and personal to a killer.

Do not expect to be entertained when you watch this series, but expect to be educated in the justice system a little deeper then your prepared to go. The killers description of the crime is not so much brutal as it is scary. This is not a TV fictional crime serious, this is deep. It is possible you might get board. Because they try to be overly smart in why they are the victim instead of the cold dead body in the ground who's life was taken from them.

The killers are very smooth talkers, and manipulative. You believe them line hook and sinker, it's almost like they are your friend down the street. You know this person. He's the guy that you see at the coffee shop everyday. The man at the barber shop or the one that sets on the steps across the street when you walk you kids to school.

And just before the knife goes in your chest you find out who they really are.
