When the police discover drains clogged with rotting flesh and bones, a meek civil servant confesses to the killings. How did they allow this to happen over five years? (Independent Television)
Reviews (1)
After diving into this miniseries, it became immediately clear that fans of gripping investigations into serial killers were in for a treat. The creators took a unique approach, revealing the killer to the audience right from the start, eschewing action scenes entirely, and centering the narrative on dialogue and acting performances. As someone who just wrapped up the eighth and ninth seasons of AHS, I found the debut episode incredibly satisfying; it offered a departure from the usual blood, gore, and dismemberment, yet still managed to deliver a wonderfully tense atmosphere. David Tennant's performance, in particular, sent shivers down my spine on more than one occasion. 4*+
