Over the past few years, Netflix has become a haven for top-notch, insightful true-crime documentaries (like Making a Murderer, The Keepers, and Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness to name a few). The next one coming down the pike is American Murder: The Family Next Door.
Check out the trailer and read more about the case below.
Synopsis:
In 2018, 34-year-old Shanann Watts and her two young daughters went missing in Frederick, Colorado. As heartbreaking details emerged, their story made headlines worldwide. Told entirely through archival footage that includes social media posts, law enforcement recordings, text messages, and never-before-seen home videos, director Jenny Popplewell pieces together an immersive and truthful examination of a police investigation and a disintegrating marriage. American Murder: The Family Next Door is the first film to give a voice to the victims.
Look for American Murder: The Family Next Door on Netflix beginning September 30th; the documentary is directed by Jenny Popplewell and edited by Simon Barker.
