    For some reason, most likely the film about the murders is responsible, this sad saga lives rent free inside my head to the point that it still feels raw and I’m genuinely shocked that it’s been over quarter of a century since conviction.

      Daniel Henshall’s acting is so good it’s unnerving.

    That’s pretty fucked: first I’ve heard of this gruesome shit. I definitely won’t be watching the film:
    The Snowtown Murders

      You should watch it. It's good, despite being based on true events.
