Throughout the 1990s, a serial killer terrorized upstate New York. After a decade-long crime spree conducted largely under the radar of law enforcement, the killer left behind the most disturbing collection of evidence homicide detectives had even seen—hundreds of homemade videotapes that chronicled the stalking, abduction, murder and disposal of his victims. The Poughkeepsie Tapes examines these horrific tapes at length: what they reveal about the killer, why they were made and how FBI profilers have used them to better understand violent, psychopathic behavior. The Poughkeepsie Tapes combines interviews surrounding the devastating impact of the "Water Street Butcher," with shocking footage from the tapes themselves.

Not everyone.

It's good for people who enjoy a impactful movie for the wrong reasons.

Horror/Scary/Murder/Society/Mental Health

It's made like a home movie from the 80s, that adds believably to it, amazing.

Hug my kids, open my door yell for everyone to protect themselves and their kids.

It made my skin crawl but at the same time I'd watch it again, cause knowing the horror that out there makes me more ready for it.

It's like the movies we had when we young, Ya know the "don't do this" mostly showed in schools. The fear is they do happen.

People who have depression/self harm/ or mental health issues shouldn't.
