TLDR

I know it’s a stupid insensitive title, but give it a chance.

What it's about

This docuseries covers true stories of roommates who acted on their dark, violent intentions on their victims.

The take

Perhaps the best thing to be said about this series is that isn’t dripping with sensationalism. Then again, most works in the genre don’t get the survivors’ side of the story, as it pulls off in an excellent first episode. Sadly, that’s not the case for all episodes, but all the same it still feels a lot safer than most true crime. It gets to the heart of the matter quickly with intimate and honest interviews, and its barebones approach to its elements is another fantastic green flag. Of course, it’s still true crime though. If you don’t like that, you won’t suddenly like this series.

What stands out

The animation scenes are a welcome, eerie addition.
