This is the second documentary about Aileen Wuornos that Nick Broomfield has made. She is still alluded to as America's first female serial killer- she was neither the first nor the most prolific - but for good reason she holds a special place in the halls of infamy.
One is entitled to ask what is his fascination with a woman who had no redeeming qualities at all, but that is a fascination shared by many people. Had Wuornos been a man - and of course there are plenty of male serial killers who have racked up greater death counts - there would have been none of this, although there would rightly have been plenty of revulsion.
This film includes interviews with many people, including of course with the damsel of death herself, right up to the eve of her execution. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
