Review of Dead Asleep

Dead Asleep (2021)
10/10
Engaging and a Story Worth Telling
5 April 2023
This is a troubling story of a murder case was much more interesting than I anticipated. The production value was immense, the range of interviewees was impressive, and the ability to encapsulate a story was well earned.

Obviously being a real story with real people, it has hit some controversy among viewers, but I don't think that deserves to drive this perspective so deep into the ground that it cannot be viewed. The court has made their decision on the events, so any other beliefs the viewers may have should be considered their own opinions, not the general.

This film showed the case from both "sides" of the story, which I feel leads to a well rounded scope of the trial. Hearing from the murderer himself was very interesting and hearing first-person accounts of his actions both in the present and what was recorded at the time made for amazing viewing.

Worth a watch, regardless of what you may think going in.
