This is a 3 part television series about a serial killer, operating mostly in the Northwest. There is a real attempt to create tension, mostly by not naming the killer until about half way through the series. The camera work is solid and there is a good sense of place. The lead detective is quiet and intense and reminds me of William Hurt. Unfortunately, nothing new is discovered about this very famous case, so it ends up being a bit humdrum. Also, the actor playing the killer is poorly cast, and bears no resemblance to the familiar real life killer - he is also a real ham, popping his eyes and tossing his hair all of the time.
