Killers Next Door
3 Episodes
Our can’t-look-away fascination with serial killers is subverted to unsettling effect in this provocative pairing. Charged with pulse-quickening suspense, Laura Moss’s short FRY DAY follows a teenage girl awakening to the realities of toxic masculinity on the night of Ted Bundy’s execution. It sets the mood for the savagely satirical, ultracontroversial MAN BITES DOG, a darkly funny and disturbing commentary on media violence in the form of a faux-documentary about a charming serial killer who knows exactly how to manipulate his audience.
