OVERALL \u2013 2.5\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Overall, Dating Game Killer<\/em><\/strong> was Investigation Discovery\u2019s attempt into the made-for-TV route, perhaps seeing the success its sister company, Lifetime, were doing. Not sure how the ratings were for this one, but based on the final product, it\u2019s finely acted but not a terribly engaging crime-thriller. The DVD released by Lionsgate is rather basic with no features.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
