Conversations with a Killer: The Charles Manson Tapes

There have been other Manson documentaries, but “Conversations with a Killer: The Charles Manson Tapes” is among the most reasoned, responsible and detailed. It’s a persuasive documentary.

Conversations With A Killer: The Charles Manson Tapes is probably the most frustrating entry in Joe Berlingers docuseries franchise. But the tidbits of new information and new interview material with Manson that he does provide in these three hours are still interesting enough to put up with the annoying reenactments and other narrative misfires.
