1. The Sons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness
Netflix's latest true crime documentary revisits a 1970s search for one of America’s most notorious serial murderers.
Convicted serial killer David Berkowitz (aka “The Son of Sam”) has been locked up for decades, but now the question is posed: did he act alone? Journalist and author Maury Terry was convinced that Berkowitz had accomplices who have never been caught, and would go on to spend decades attempting to prove that the web of darkness behind the murders went deeper than anyone imagined. In The Sons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness, filmmaker Joshua Zeman draws on archival news footage, conversations with the people closest to the investigation, and Terry’s own words and case files to tell a cautionary tale of a man who went down a rabbit hole and never came out. With the question remaining: was Maury Terry chasing ghosts, or are the true Sons of Sam still out there?
Release date: May 5
