Un bail en enfer

I enjoyed the documentary except for one thing. That last 2 episodes follow the story of a serial squatter named Jed Creek aka Jamison Bachman. I felt so sorry for everybody involved that suffered so much, but the victim, Alex Miller, creeped me more than the offender. The way she talked, the facial expressions.... (kinda sociopathic also), reaaaaaly creeped me, had to fast forward all the parts with her.

Have to admit, I'm not the biggest documentary watcher, but occassionally I stumble across one which I binge my way through and Worst Roommate Ever fit that mould for me.

Each episode, barring the last two which are the same story, explore a variety of stories where tenants or home owners experience the neighbour (sorry, roommate) from hell.

Watched all five episodes in one sitting. Each episode was engaging throughout.

And the big question... MINIMAL PHONE BROWSING THROUGHOUT. I think the only time I used my phone was at the end of an episode where I read up some more on the episode I'd just seen.

7 stars, but closer to an 8 than a 6, if that makes sense.

Another solid crime mini-series delivered by Netflix. I watched the entire series in one sitting. It's a perfect mix of crime, fraud and murder. The first episode was by far the best in my opinion - talk about an innocent looking old lady that doesn't look like she'd cause any harm?! It goes to show you can never be so sure what a person is capable of, regardless of how old they are!

The last victim, Alex Miller was difficult to watch. Should have been narrated by other people, too much acting, difficult to really want to watch what happened due to her horrible narration and "crying"

Netflix once again delivers for fans of real life crime documentaries. This five part series tells us of four different criminals, with various crimes, including fraud and murder, the only thing linking the stories, is a tenuous story about a room mate link.

The first episode blew me away, the most shocking story of the lot, the case of Dorothea Puente, it's enough to give you nightmares for a month. Talk about somebody not looking like they could cause harm to anyone.

It's a well produced series, each has some intriguing interviews, and some decent animation which helps tell the story.

I wonder if a second series will follow, I'm sure there's enough demand, and material.

You may well, like I did, watch each episode, and wonder how on earth the victims allowed themselves to be put into such situations, but when you're desperate for help, financial or otherwise, you tend to believe the best in people. Hindsight is a wonderful thing I guess.

Overall, it's a good watch. 8/10.
