Synopsis

Columbia University forensic psychiatrist Dr. Michael Stone delves into the minds of exceptionally disturbed killers, examining the origins of their aberrant desires and the forces that propel them to enact their darkest fantasies. Among those he profiles are Jerome Brudos, whose unusual fixations began with a childhood obsession and culminated in the brutal murder and mutilation of four women, and Jeffrey Dahmer, notorious for the torture, murder, and dismemberment of seventeen men and boys.
