Unseen

Warning: this is the only true crime documentary which I have watched for 5 times, and it's strange that it is a kind of hidden gem, it's a frightening story of a monster who took advantage of the most vulnerable women, and it is the story of a heroic brave woman who confronted her trauma and fear and was the star witness, the details of her abduction and the place where this monster live is terrifying.

I applaud these women for having the strength to share all they went through from beginning to end: additionally, the neighbourhood residents and relatives provided a POV not usually shown in these cases.

All of those that managed to dig themselves out of the negative lifestyles to become all they can and more is a part of the story that is most encouraging. I doubt many people would be able to endure what these survivors have been through.

I highly recommend this watch to anyone that is a aficionado of true crime. I had read a book about this case previously but learned much more watching this movie.

The best documentaries often go sideways:because the documentarian(s) follow the underlying story instead of blindly trying to make the film that he or she perhaps initially envisioned. This documentary is a prime example of following the truth of the story. When I added this to my watchlist, I expected something other than I experienced. Instead of the "serial killer expose" that I was expecting, a moving and mind-altering story unfolded. I did not read any reviews prior to viewing, so I hesitate to go into detail for those who prefer a more generalized explanation. Suffice to say, I was shaken, and cannot recommend this documentary highly enough.

Devastatingly real. No one deserves to lose their life like these woman did. No matter their lifestyle choice and their vices. Prayers to those who were left behind and the survivors. Heartbreaking and disturbing.

This touched the depths of my soul. Want the families to know their Loved Ones are NOT garbage. The store owner is as guilty as the perp. We have a responsibly to each other. Wow. If you are not part of the solution,(lifting a fallen, fellow Human Being) you ARE the problem.
