I have read the story of the actual events this movie is based on and what truly disturbs me is that the first victim was seen by many motorists running away from her abductor, with the bottom half of her body naked, crying and yelling for help and NOBODY stopped to help her. I can only hope Karma paid each one of them tri-fold. Perhaps if one of those cowards stopped to help her she would still be alive today. Also, it's unbelievable that the evidence in case of the first and the last victim was lost or destroyed. With the advances in genetic testing it could possibly lead to the perpetrators who committed those crimes. BTW I believe those were two different people.
yeah, terrible and what would it have taken to stop? It most likely would have scared the killer off without confronting him....and who knows, might have deterred him from killing the other girls as well.........
She was spiritual, she didn't know how to channel her gift.... She should have been talking to another person like her.... They would have taught her to use her gift. And not be afraid of it.....
@madonnablagdon4566 They also never found the perpetrator(s). Everything I read after watching the movie made me believe the first girl, it was her uncle. The two other girls, it was someone else. And the police LOST the genetic evidence. They only have the samples from the 2nd child. I also read that there was a suspect who went to jail, and after 30 years they let him out. And apparently they claim they don't have a genetic material from him to compare. After 30 years in jail, they don't have his DNA?! Unbelievable!
This is actually a very good movie. One for 'film buffs' - people who don't need a happy ending, or to know what's happening all the time. Very good performances and lots of stars. Quite disturbing, but more satisfying than movies from the 2020s.
It is disgusting how people who have extraordinary intuition and clairvoyance ability are treated as mentally ill . Humanity is still in a dark ages . 😢
There have always been the “The nurotypical” people who through the ages are feared. Some where shamans who helped their people. Certain religious communities spread fear when experiencing them.
Love this actress Eliza Dushku. She's very good. Good movie. Clairvoyance is looked at as being mentally unstable but it is real it happens. And it is frightening to the people who have it.
I really like her, too. I've also seen her in "Wrong Turn", about the campers who encounter cannibals, and "True Lies", w/Schwarzeneggar, who, to his wife, was a computer salesman, but was actually a spy. Very attractive woman.
yes. But let's be honest here. #1, its a movie. #2, if it was real life, if he hadn't been doing what he was doing in the first place, he wouldn't have been killed. He was standing in front of the window and all the police outside knew was that he was holding people hostage...with a gun!!!

Man i feel so sorry for people having to go thru schizophrenia. You have to be strong as an ox to live with that and find some quality in life. Seen a documentary about it and the way it was worked into the story was very well done.
Delusions are not always due to schizophrenia, though perhaps this was the case for this detective. Temporary delusions can be caused by drugs, even by marijuana, traumatic experience, or just significant stress.
@@carlabroderick5508 I know but the type hallucinations she experienced are completely in line with what people suffering the disorder explained, plus.. nowadays that comes with screen magic they used to explain what exactly these hallucinations look like most of the time that's why i thought of that. I smoke weed, suffer CPTSD and also used all sorts of hard drugs. I only had ONE hallucination. I am 50.
@@carlabroderick5508 - I believe that a past stressful situation (like rape, abuse, assault) combined with a later stressful situation (held hostage, assault, etc.) can cause schizophrenia. I know a couple of people with those situations who became schizophrenic.
It's hard to do a good job when you are running on your emotions. She was too aggressive in the way she went about doing things even though she had the best of intentions.
as a movie this is not too bad, it bears very little in common with the real case from the early 70's. there were certainly no police with great intuition or clairvoyance working this case.
why did they have to write her character like that?! That really was stupid. and that stupid doctor. I would sue him for what he let her do to that staff member!!
This is based off of the deaths of three young girls with identical initials. Carmen Colon, Wanda Walkowick and Michelle Maenza in upstate NY. Of course the director is going to have creative control but it is a true story.
The actress playing Megan is outstanding. Good work, it seems the rapist and killer out smart the Police Department. They put the only person who can solve these crimes in a solitary mental hospital... It's a good story with some good actors.
@@Catlover1956.Yes, she was the 2nd Slayer, also referred to as The Dark Slayer. Eliza Dushku also starred in True Lies with Arnold Schwarzenegger. She is great!
She is also a fictional character......and not part of the "based on a true story" btw.........I actually was more intrigued about her existence than I was about the REAL murders......the only truth to this film is that 3 young girls were all killed in similar manner in the Rochester NY area from 1971 to 1973 and then the killing stopped......and no one was ever caught.....these FACTS tend to suggest the murderer either died or got imprisoned for something else, or even another murder that wasn't a child. It's also possible the killer committed suicide.......of course, this was way before DNA testing and cell phones. They had a scene which depicted one of the murder victims had a cell phone which she had left at home the day she was murdered......
I would love to finish this movie but the amount of ads is ridiculous. Like they dont already make plenty in profits especially after they demonetize for the the use of basic words among the other pay cuts creators have delt with over the yrs. Straight greed. Guess 31 billion in profits isnt cutting it.
This is a weird coincidence maybe but a guy in California named Joseph Naso is on death row for the deaths of six women, one of them Carmen Colon 22. But in the upstate NY case the same name of one of the girls was Carmen Colon aged 11. They think he's the one that did these three as well. There was one man that spent 25 years in prison for one of them but later released, I couldn't find his name in the article I read.
This movie is a combination of other serial murders. Bundy, the Alphabet murderer and a California murderer who killed children, perhaps Terry Childs. Interesting 🤨
This is a good thriller… I hope the end is as solid as the beginning. Aren’t nearly enough good thrillers to satisfy my nightly thrillerlust. This one is highly recommended based on the first hour or so…👍🏻
A little slow for my liking but not a bad movie. Would like to see a follow up movie, did they connect following murders to the first etc. What happened to Megan.
The true basis of this story happened in the early 70s, so, of course, there were no cell phones then....unless of course you were a time traveler.......or from Star Trek.........just saying....
Actually. The parents of the 2nd victim had their daughter's cell phone. Remember, the father all freaked out cause she forgot her phone at home so couldn't call him to help when she needed him. Mother took from his hands and gave to cops so they had a list of her friends.
@@siggysue1968 ok sure, but again, the based on true events that happened in1971 to 1973....my point is, obviously there were NO cellphones then.....and this film gives the impression it happened in the 2000s.....also, they talked about matching cat hair DNA, again,technology that's did not exist in the early 1970s.....
The actress that plays Wendy's mom was in an AMC cop show unfortunately I forgot the name. It was similar and dark. I think I young girl was murdered but my memory is poor now. I wish I could remember the name of the AMC show because I missed a few episodes.
Why can't there be any programs or movies without filthy four letter words? It isn't necessary when telling a story. It doesn't add anything positive either.
I am psychic but I do NOT know any other psychic who behaves as this female is portrayed as behaving. Granted many people who have special abilities do not understand what is going on. This is just odd.
The movie clearly said she's schizophrenic, not psychic. That's why the character is portrayed in this way. If she were sane and a psychic, it'd be very different how she was portrayed.
YT crime movies are really educating me.. I had not realized that most of the best Detectives are young, 20'ish females who gave up catwalk modelling to catch serial killers ... and show lesser talented male Detectives how its done. I'm done at 15 minutes.....after the supernatural rubbish started.

The problem with modern movies is that too many scenes are filmed in the dark. We had better images in the forty, the fifty, and the sixty.
I agree. The filming itself is all very dark, so to was the more recent Poiret version. Makes me scream “turn the light on.” 😂
I agree, that is a big complaint with me. I have turned off so many movies because they were so dark or they mumbled so much.
I agree. Can’t see them clearly so when that happens I switch off.
Good actors, realistic script, unfortunately no happy ending. But it shows how hard and dangerous police work it is 😢
It is disgusting how people who have extraordinary intuition and clairvoyance ability are treated as mentally ill . Humanity is still in a dark ages . 😢
Yes but I find it interesting that the officer did NOT kn ow she was psychic.
I love this comment Thank you And happy Blessed 2025 to you.
Well in this movie, she was a nut case ,and acted as a raging lunatic

I suspected the policeman in the blue uniform. So nobody believes her, cause mad. To try to investigate the real killer, to this date? Did she die?

It's hard to do a good job when you are running on your emotions. She was too aggressive in the way she went about doing things even though she had the best of intentions.

This film was much better than I expected it to be. The actress playing the lead is very good. Well worth watching.
Eliza Dushku. She was in "Bring It On", "The New Guy", "Wrong Turn", "Soul Survivors" just to name a couple. She's one of my favorites.

Me either. Are we meant to feel sorry for the victims or the weirded out detective. And the lighting is bad, or is that just the copying.
And I have no idea why I'm replying to you.
Good 😊👍💯🔥🔥🔥👏 part 2 needed

The murders were still not solved, there is not anything to do a part 2 with.
