A film and TV reviewer known online as Eccy Reviews has told his TikTok followers that Netflix users are missing out if they have not watched three true crime documentaries he recommends. He described all three as likely to leave viewers stunned, with the final pick called "the most shocking documentary on Netflix."
Three Recommendations That Demand Attention
Eccy Reviews, who shares viewing recommendations online, said: "You are seriously wasting your Netflix if you haven't seen these three documentaries." He added: "All three of these will have your jaw on the floor. But the last one is the most shocking documentary on Netflix."
The first pick is Should I Marry a Murderer?, a documentary centred on a fiancée who becomes a crucial witness after remaining engaged to a man accused of murder in order to build a case against him. Eccy explained: "This follows a young woman who meets this man online and after getting together, meeting the love of her life, she realises that there is something going on. After one too many drinks she begins to get the truth from him that he actually murdered and hid the body with his brother, and what comes next is genuinely insane."
Two More Hard-Hitting Stories
The second recommendation is American Murder: Gabby Petito, which covers the case of Gabby Petito, a 22-year-old killed by her fiancé, Brian Christopher Laundrie, in August 2021. Its IMDb description reads: "A young couple's cross-country van journey, documented on social media, ends in tragedy when domestic violence shatters their seemingly perfect life. Their story sparks a nationwide investigation and raises questions about family loyalty."
Eccy said: "The second one is called American Murder Gabby Petito, as this follows a young girl who decides to go travelling with her boyfriend, vlogging and recording the entire experience. And after a few days of her parents not hearing from her, they decide to visit the boyfriend's parents to see the camper van and him back home. But her daughter is nowhere. As they begin to investigate, you generally won't believe what happens, so make sure you get it on your watchlist right now."
The final pick is Sins of Our Mother, which Eccy described as "one of the best documentaries on Netflix" and said left him utterly stunned. The documentary details how the hunt for Lori Vallow's vanished children revealed a series of dubious deaths, a new spouse who embraced her apocalyptic convictions and a disturbing murder investigation.
He stated: "This follows a woman who, after having a child with this man, ends up leaving him, meeting another Man ends up having multiple children, has years of a relationship, and when she begins to get more devoted to her religion and goes to this church, she begins to have an affair with this man. However, he believes that he is some sort of prophet. He believes that her ex husband, her children are all the devil. And what happens next is some of the most insane and disturbing things you will ever see on television."
