About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a shocking true-crime documentary about grievance, escalation, and community fallout, in the vein of Operation Varsity Blues or Madoff: The Monster of Wall Street; Not for you if you dislike bleak, violent real-world stories.

Pros: gripping real-life story; tense rampage footage; varied interview voices | Cons: sympathetic to violence; bleak subject matter; reenactments may distract
