Where Is Robert Fisher?

They used a psychic as a testimony. Apart from that it is very boring.

Robert Fisher is said to have stabbed and shot his wife and then slit the throats of his children. He took his stuff out of the house. Then put accelerant down the hallway to the bedrooms with a candle burning on the floor. He then disconnected the gas pipe from the furnace so gas filled the house and exploded when the candle burned down. These two actions are very sophisticated and unlike for a distraught dad to do after murdering his family. The throat slit and the gunshot to the wife is also strange. If it were a spur of the moment, the throat or the gunshot would do. Why would he slit his children's throats, if he had a gun. He would shoot them as they slept. Someone in a crazed maniacal storm would shoot and run. Someone else killed Robert's family and told him what to do at gunpoint. Someone told him to gather his belongings and take the dog. Someone told him to go to the ATM and withdraw the maximum amount. Robert Fisher was told to drive to the forest that he knew. The car and dog are left. Fisher is marched at gunpoint out to another vehicle. The killers take Fisher to a remote location and kill him. Why? The mystery! No one knows but the killers who leave everyone puzzled and devastated. The story is the power. The front page. The documentary. The killers ruin his name and his family both. And no one but the killers are in control.

I began to think it was a parody on Dateline. Those are some of the worst investigators I've ever seen. They actually believe themselves? Please don't waste your time.

Low budget, direct-to-tv documentary. But even for someone who only heard about this case for the first time without watching other "crime shows" about it, it gives a well rounded account of the Robert Fisher case. As this case lingers for many years now, it pretty much boggles down to theories of his whereabouts based on different appraisals of his hunter skills. But 3/4 of the film has passed past and the rest is just time fillers, there's just nothing else to add.

And just to drive my point home, I remove 2 stars from my original 6 for the two minutes interview of that psychic at the end.

This case is definitely interesting, but I found myself turning to my phone and the internet to get more info because the documentary was incredibly, painfully slow. It was odd the way it was put together, flip flopping theories literally from one shot to the next and did I mention how slow it was? This whole show was peppered with horrible, 80's creepy synthesizer music which was overlayed on top of so many home movies that do not move the story forward at all and long pauses throughout. I know the case has dried up a little and that's why they may have dragged out the show. But, this is not an uninteresting case and it should have been done so much better.
