Der Regenmantel-Killer: Mörderjagd in Korea

This is a decent enough watch but could have been shorter and made into a single documentary. The most disturbing thing about it is how the South Korean police did not have a clue about chasing a serial killer until 2004. It's like their own Jack The Ripper....... Only over 100 years later!

Ye Gods, this is like watching the Tiger King of serial killer documentaries. I have never, in my *life*, seen such a grotesquely, comically, inept and incompetent pack of Keystone Cops outside of, well, you know......

It's just jaw-dropping.

They cops had me rolling in the first episode. I didn't know if they were real cops or comedians joking about the serious of the events. They really sounded scared!! If the cops have no back bones what is the public suppose to do?! It's a good watch and honestly I could see how easy it's to become a "serial murderer" in Korea. The fact this is recent too.

"The Raincoat Killer", et al, is a documentary on how, despite being one of the most abjectly inept police forces to exist, the Seoul, Korea police caught a serial killer. Apparently, the Seoul police worked on a reward basis for promotion, so they didn't bother themselves with any other crimes but murder; you'd think they'd have been better at it. The documentary is incredulously amusing at times, which is disturbing. It also gave insight into who the P. D. found valuable in society and who they didn't/don't.

Frustrated. So many things could've done better. The story only focus on the useless and incompetent police officers which I don't understand why this become the main view while the story could focusing more on the perpetrator himself. How he ended up being like that and such. And the reenactment scenes also doesn't make it sounds or seems thrilling to watch. This can be squashed up into one episode rather than stretching it out too much into three parts. Slow paced with no guarantee of clear closure for the viewers is risky.
