The Hunt for the BTK Killer (2005 TV Movie)
3/10
Bad for a movie, pretty good for a documentary

Warning: Spoilers
As a TV movie it had a lot more potential to bring it as a film. For example they could have chosen not to start in the beginning revealing who the serial killer is. But they did, and the rest of the movie is in fact set up like documentary. It tells the story from the view of the serial killer and a part from the police side with a little part of how the investigation was done.

That's why I would not call this one a movie, because it isn't. And if it is, then it's a bad movie, without suspense in it. No real action, only a storyboard.

However, if one is interested in serial killers en one likes documentary's or life story's about them, this is one of the better I've seen. Luckely I belong to the persons who are interested in the ways of thinking and acting of a serial killer and why they become them etc. So I've seen it completely.

But due to the fact that it's called "film" and not "documentary" it got a 3 from me. Was it called documentary it would have gotten an 8.
