Andrei Chikatilo just won't quit
6 January 2022
Soviet serial killer Andrei Chikatilo just won't quit. I know HBO movies in the 90s were supposed to be all that but this feels like an amped up TV movie. The tension outside of the murders is cartoonish. The only thing missing is the ever nagging wife. This is not a thriller about Chikatilo but an expose about the inept Soviet Union.

A brand new hangdog forensics head is confronted with the first body found of the many young victims of serial killer Chikatilo. When he asks for help he is turned down for every request he makes and each one is necessary. Anything to save party face.
