Viewing Notes

Note that I use a 4-point scale.

Paradise Lost is an absolutely unforgettable documentary that will leave you haunted, and begging for more information. The grisly murder of three little 8-year old boys, and the aftermath is examined in detail, right from the front lines. The images are incredible disturbing, and the facts follow suit. What’s amazing about this documentary - the first in an eventual trilogy - is just how neutral the filmmakers stay. Knowing how this whole true life story ends makes viewing this even more interesting. I won’t ruin it here, but a quick Google search will reveal more to anyone interested. This is fantastic documentary filmmaking, and is must-see.
