"The 12th Victim" is a beautiful thing to watch, in its black-and-white interviews and dreamy aesthetic, but it will leave a viewer in a troubled state of reflection long after it is over.

It’s also a primer on some of the more curious TV fads of the 1970s and ’80s. ... That, along with the occasional juxtaposition of real-life news clips alongside snippets of the films the case inspired, make “The 12th Victim” more interesting than it might otherwise have been — and a reminder that the Starkweather murders seemingly will never stop drawing us in.

When “The 12th Victim” focuses tightly on Fugate herself—as in footage of her as a babysitter after her release and interviews with that family—it’s effective, but it has a habit of padding to get to its four-hour length.

Marsh’s points are good ones and persuasive ones. The documentary, unfortunately, is marred by one questionable irritating storytelling choice after another, a cumulative weight of small missteps more than any single, grand blunder.
