Rabbit Hole Two: More Movies

True Crime, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Welcome Back to Cherry Avenue True Crime Podcast.  We have two new true crime cases today that movies were made about, continuing with our Based on a True Story theme. Each episode stands on it’s own, so you don’t have to be caught up on episodes in the series or anything like that.  Each episode will have movies that were based on a true story, and we will go over the movie and the real story behind it.  This is Rabbit Hole 2. The two movies today are:  Out of The Darkness and Hunt For The I-5 Killer.

Rabbit Hole:  Based on a True Story: Serial Killer Edition

Welcome back to Cherry Avenue True Crime Podcast!

I am continuing here with our Based on a True Story series.  This is the first one on Serial Killers.

There are a lot of movies made about serial killers.   For instance, there are at least four movies about Ted Bundy.  There are at least two on Jeffrey Dahmer, two or more on John Wayne Gacy, two on the Zodiac Killer, etc.  For this series we will go over the movies and the crimes of these as well as all the lesser known serial killers.   Hopefully you will find a few movies you want to watch and possibly along the way learn a few interesting things, you didn’t know before. And of course, there will be names of some bonus movies at the end.

Brutal Obsession:  Based on a True Story series

Welcome Back to Cherry Avenue True Crime Podcast

On this episode we are continuing on with the Based on a True Story series where I am covering a movie that is based on a true crime story and we’ll go over the movie as well as what really happened.  Also, stay tuned at the end of each episode as I will be giving some bonus movie names.  These are names of true crime movies that I’m not going to cover in this series but you can go and look up and watch on one of the streaming platforms.

The movie for this episode is: Stalking Laura and it is really well done.  It’s one of those that have stuck with me, and really makes you think.

Helter Skelter Special Part 1

True Crime, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

This was a truly horrific murder spree.  Sometimes I think the humanity of the victims is really lost in all the Charles Manson craziness.  Humans are always looking to belong, looking for their “people”, looking for people like themselves, craving a connection of some kind.  Manson played into this at one of the easiest times in history to pull it off. He didn’t even know what type of world he was walking out into when he was released from prison in the 1967.  But he was good at adapting quickly, after years of having to survive abusive care from relatives and then people in the reform schools and boys homes he lived in and on into prison.  He came out with his pimp knowledge and his Dale Carnegies’ How to Make Friends and Influence People education along with his gift of being able to turn into (or seem like) what people wanted.  He didn’t change into what he wanted until they were well well ensnared.
