B.T.K. The Worlds Most Elusive Serial Killer
6.5

A documentary produced during the brief period after the BTK Killer resurfaced by sending letters to police in 2004—following nearly 30 years of silence—but before Dennis Rader was identified and arrested in February 2005. In 1974, a serial killer terrorised Wichita, Kansas. Known as the BTK Killer due to the method in which would Bind, Torture and Kill his victims, his killing spree lasted for 7 years in which time he murdered 8 victims indiscriminately. Although he regularly communicated with police via a series of letters, BTK mysteriously disappeared in 1979 and has not been heard from in over 25 years. Incredibly, in March 2004 he suddenly returned. This film tells the extraordinary story of one of the longest running serial killer cases in history.

Princess Diana: The Mourning After
6.6

In "Diana: The Mourning After" Christopher Hitchens sets out to examine the bogusness of "a nation's grief", tries to uncover the few voices of sanity that cut against the grain of contrived hysteria. His findings suggested that the collective hordes of emotive Dianaphiles sobbing in the streets were not only encouraged but emulated by the media. In the aftermath of Diana's death a three-line whip was enforced on newspapers and on TV, selling the sainthood line wholesale. The suspicion was that journalists, like the public, greeted the death as a chance to wax emotional in print, as a change from the customary knowing cynicism, to wheel out all those portentous phrases they'd been saving up for the big occasion. Sadly, they just seemed to be showboating; the eulogies, laments and tear-soaked platitudes ringing risibly hollow.
