Beast of Bangalore: Indian Predator

Compared to the other episodes of the series, it is much weaker production. The main reason for this is the lack of sufficient evidence related to the main events. Other episodes feature interviews with the victim and, in some cases, the original defendant. Nothing such was found here. As a result, the solidity of the screenplay remains absent here. And that's why the episode is so average. This episode doesn't live up to the standards that Indian Predators series has set. Although the main accused is a gruesome and brutal murderer, rapist and abuser of women. The cinematography of the recreated dramatic parts based on true events is beautiful.

After the success of Murder in a Courtroom, The Indian Predator series returns fairly quickly, with this, Beast of Bangalore, a sadistic rapist and killer that terrorised women for several years.

I really enjoyed the previous series, this one however was poor in contrast, a totally disappointing contrast. The three episodes could genuinely have been condensed down into an hour long production, this was painfully stretched out.

We actually learn very, very little Bout Umesh Reddy, his motivation, background, we just really get opinions of how his crimes affected society, it's too narrow.

I don't mean to knock the story, it's fascinating, but the way it's told here, is very poor, crimes against women, however no women are interviewed in the first two episodes, so we only get the viewpoint of the men involved in the case, there is no mention of the victims, just sketchy information about the actual miscreant.

Only episode three offers any significant input, but it really is such a dreary, lifeless production, it's guilty of the worst thing, it's boring, I couldn't binge watch it, I had to take regular breaks, as concentrating on it was hard work.

One of the worst Netflix documentary series to date, 3/10.

Beast of Bangalore: Indian Predator 2022 is based on true events happened in India. This series is really nice to watch. It tells the story of dark thing happened in India. I will really recommend it to anyone to watch. It is okay to watch and yeah if you are looking for a series based on true story this will be best for you to watch. I will definitely recommend it to anyone. Everything was nice and good in the shooting videography audio everything was good. This type of series should be continued. We can be aware of that. So yeah you should watch it.

Indian Predator: Beast of Bangalore

A guy from a village in Karnataka, lives in Bangalore, and has a weird kind of fetish of collecting women's undergarments, his name was Umesh Reddy. He also attacked many women and assaulted them sexually. One of those women became mentally disturbed, she couldn't even say anything in her defense.

Later on, the court acquits him in most of those cases on the basis of lack of proper evidence. The evidence police found through investigation wasn't acceptable in court and the kind of evidence the court wanted could not be made available. During investigation and trial, he was successful in escaping many times from police's custody.

He gets a death sentence but finally it gets converted to life imprisonment and he is still behind bars.

Watching crime documentaries often leaves me with an uneasy feeling and anxiety, but "Indian Predator: Beast of Bangalore" was particularly thought-provoking. The documentary explores the horrific case of a serial predator who terrorized Bangalore, highlighting the system's struggle to deliver swift and effective punishment. Just like the Nirbhaya case, this one dragged on for years despite overwhelming evidence. It raises serious questions about lengthy appeals processes and the true effectiveness of capital punishment. While some argue executions serve as a deterrent, the documentary leaves you wondering if they truly deliver justice, especially when victims are left with lifelong trauma. The carelessness of some police officers and the slow pace of the judiciary only add to the frustration. "The Beast of Bangalore" is a tough watch, but a necessary one, reminding us of the human cost of a flawed system.
