Santa Claus: The Serial Killer

Firstly Mobeen the investigative journalist and his team have done a thorough and fantastic job. I happened upon this not realising i just watched a doco from more of a police point of view and it paled in comparison. Mobeen digs deep and connects the dots... pulls at the threads until the real truth is revealed. Its a Jekyll and Hyde story that preyed on the vulnerable and their secretive lives. While i was watching this the unseen truth outed all... this tragedy could have been stopped sooner... many lives could of been saved if only the world was a little bit kinder or more receptive to our life choices.

The other doco on this was informative and recommend watching that first, however this one tells the stories of the victims and how they were singled out, cornered and captured without any hope of escape because of their vulnerability.

Caught this on IPlayer in early 2024. Starts out well but goes downhill very quickly.

We start out with facts, indepth looks into stuff and it quickly decends into pure sensationalism.

The whole thing appears to be a ego trip for a D list "journalist" who seems determined to make it about him. A great deal of time is spent with him looking at a wall, sticking pictures up and writing on post it notes. The post it budget muct have been huge!

The visit to the gay sauna was the last straw for me. Why? It could have been done via arranging interviews but no whipping your clothes off will make it more dramatic won't it... pathetic.

Could have been so much more but with a main host who seems incapable of dealing with the real issues, it's a wasted opportunity.

10x worse than I expected. Another woke so called documentary. More like a YouTuber video. No deep analysis. No interviews directly with the serial killer. Alot of subjective hypothesis. Boring. Woody. Many flat scenes. Could have been made in one episode to be honest. There was no deep objective analysis. Just another weak woke pop documentary. Bad script Bad editing. I had to force myself to sot thru this bad documentary. I mean is the guy a real journalist because he just seemed like a youtuber. Really gnawing teeth boring. Best part was when it ended. I don't recommend anyone watch this. Waste of time.
