One of my favorites real life mystery murder cases.

The backstory is interesting. The movie is kind of meh.

For me it works... The 1970's documentary style filming, the narration,and Sparkplug gives a bit of levity. (But I get how it comes across as corny.) I felt the same way watching it as a Teen as I did watching the original "Texas Chainsaw massacre". Very scared from the eerie atmosphere. I remember watching it on a foggy night alone recently and it was still effective.
Really enjoy Dawn Wells in her small but important role. Apparently she was actually terrified filming it at 2 a.m. with a Dog on a chain barking nearby her etc.
