Limited Series Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Tribune
Nina Metz
There is no shortage of TV and film about Gacy. This is just one more.
Consequence
Clint Worthington
As an example of the well-worn genre of true-crime docs, it's decently well-structured, moves fast at a mere three hours(!), and accurately pins down the societal ills that Gacy's predation highlighted.
Common Sense Media
Polly Conway
True crime buffs may appreciate the details in this heavy documentary, while others may find the whole thing too disturbing to be entertaining.
JoBlo's Movie Network
Alex Maidy
If you are fascinated by true crime and already have seen other documentaries, you may not find much value in this series, but it is still a well-put-together chronicle of the infamous events with first-hand accounts you cannot find anywhere else.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
What stands out in this project from director Joe Berlinger is the historical context of how Gacy exploited the vulnerability of young men and teens, especially those who had left home or been cast out by their families.

The John Wayne Gacy Tapes is a shocking but easy watch.
