Movies and TV Jinx on HBO - Page 5

**Baby Lee** · 05:45 AM

Is anyone watching this?

Completely under the radar. Then a few people were hyping by word of mouth. Only a couple episodes in, but holy schnikes. Super rich [I'm talking owning Manhattan skyscrapers rich, nearly billions in the '70s rich] dude slumming, killing people, dismembering them and tossing them in the ocean. And no one was talking about this???

This decades after his stunning wife disappears without a trace back in '82. Then when he says unprovoked of his own volition 'I was complicit in her non-existence any more?' Wow.

Looks like there's more to the story because they are interviewing him first person, but it's off to a roaring start.

Some compared it to True Detective and the podcast Serial.

According to him, his father took him TO THE WINDOW to watch his mother jump off the roof when he was like 7.

Truly it's like finding out that American Horror Story is a documentary. Really destroys your faith in humanity.

And for Sopranos fans, phone records place him in the Pine Barrens days after she disappeared.

Most shocking story I've witnessed since Donald Sterling broke. Wow!!

And my GOD, the blinking that this guys does in his interviews. Creepiest thing since the series on The Iceman with his dead ****ing stare

I was familiar with this story back from the Galveston events/trial. I watched the documentary series the last two nights and had to finish before going to sleep tonight. The first four episodes were interesting but as mentioned by some earlier the really fascinating stuff really was in the last two. Crazy how this was captured and unfolded in a documentary like it did.

Man those facial ticks...

If you guys like this, you should check out "The Staircase." Another great series, albeit a bit older.

This guy has to have two people living in his head, right? There is your normal everyday talking to yourself, and then there is what he does. Not to mention speaking in the third person, but not always...

I am fascinated by what motivated his mother to jump or "fall". Is this the Jinx, that he inherited his mother's mental illness?

What if he killed his mom?

Would explain why the rest of the family won't speak about him.
