Omicidio tra i mormoni

At first I thought, geez this case is so old, I don't care ... and then I couldn't turn it off. The murderer is as cold-blooded as Ted Bundy. Watch for the photos at the end. 😮

Utilizing extensive present day interviews with people directly involved; and plenty of archival footage and news broadcasts, the film takes a very detailed look at a truly unbelievable crime. The editing is great.

I was entertained all the way through. There's not a bunch of filler, and the episodes fly by. If you tend to enjoy this kind of content, or true crime, then this series should be very enjoyable for you.

When it comes to religion, all rational and critical thinking must be abandoned. They wanted to believe so much, they never truly questioned the miraculousness of how 1 person could be in a position of a Genie bottle to make your wish come true.

What else has been forged into our history and how has that shaped our way of thinking?

Seeing the clip of the Pastor on TV confirming the history of Mormanism via a forged document was priceless.

Nevertheless, Hoffman was a brilliant mind and a savage.

The pacing and editing in this true crime documentary is what made it interesting and compelling. Intertwining the archival footage with present day interviews was done well. However I particularly enjoyed the discovery and science of the motive, and appreciated the series took the time to explain how it was accomplished.

Fascinating story, well told.

A short three piece documentary that was actually pretty wild. The documentary style had a great flow and use of archival footage. Pairing current and old interviews with the same subjects was interesting. The doc gave just enough background on Mormon history and documents to get you up to speed but not overwhelm. An unexpected conclusion.
