Killer Legends – Review

film reviews | movies | features | BRWC Killer Legends - Review

Have you ever wondered where some of the most famous and most terrifying urban legends originated from? No? Well then why the hell are you reading this review, go do something more productive. If you have wondered though, you should seriously check out Killer Legends.

This excellent documentary from Joshua Zeman (the man who brought us the terrifying Cropsey back in 2009), investigates the true crimes that over time grew to be legendary stories that almost everyone has heard at one time or another. Turns out that the truth is a lot more disturbing than the fiction. Joshua and his filmmaking partner Rachel Mills travel from town to town all over America looking into cases going back decades.

Over the course of the proceedings the duo examine killer clowns, the candyman, when a stranger calls and the bloody hook in the car door. Its interesting to see how these crimes shaped the towns and people around them and how time blurs the details and the tale crosses over into fiction territory. Its a fascinating case study on how time warps our perception of past events, the facts change and we trick ourselves into believing falsities and chinese whispers. Check out the movie on VOD sites and its due for a DVD release later in the year.
