Overall, Becoming Evil: Serial Killers isn’t all that well put together documentary series, in fact comes across as a bit cheap, but with the explosion of true crime that has elevated Investigative Discovery, A&E (thanks to The First 48 and Live PD and its offshoots) and Lifetime. But at a bargain price, this might be worth picking up.
