Movies that I already have
Watched movies, tv series, documentaries with/about serial killers. Mostly classic serial killers (3 or more victims in two and more separate events over a period of time). Sorted by recently watched. Check my Slasher killers list too.
Note: I've decided to add here story of Luka Rocco Magnotta (Don't F*** with Cats) even officially he's not a serial killer. You should watch this too.
From the cheesy to the great, all the movies that have touched me somehow.
I want to see
Upcoming and plan to watch
From bleak Expressionist works to the edgy political cinema of the New German Cinema and the feel-good Heimat films of the postwar era, Directory of World Cinema: Germany aims to offer a wider film and cultural context for the films that have emerged from Germany - including some of the East German films recently made available to Western audiences for the first time. With contributions by leading academics and emerging scholars in the field, this volume explores the key directors, themes, and periods in German film history, and demonstrates how genres have been adapted over time to fit historical circumstances.
