The story is a very interesting one. However, like many true-crime documentaries currently out there on Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, Max, etc., they like to extend their stories out into as many episodes as possible. This was four episodes at approximately one hour each. This could easily have all been told in two episodes...certainly no more than three. I'm all for hearing from the families of the victims, and about the state of homophobia during the 90's, but these aspects went on and on and on.
I also found Bea Hanson and Matt Foreman, the two talking heads who talked the most about the gay community at that time to be hypocrites. They are constantly complaining about how the case wasn't taken seriously by law enforcement because gay men were murdered, and that really "didn't count" to the public at large. But then when we find out the murderer was actually a gay man himself, and his self-loathing at being gay was probably why he did all these murders, Hanson and Foreman immediately are dismissive of this critical fact, and feel it has no relevance. I was also blown away at the hypersensitivity of believing that the term "Last Call Killer" was homophobic. No it wasn't, unless you're going to say that heterosexual men and women don't engage in these kinds of sexual practices, which they do.
