Aileen Wuornos: American Boogeywoman

Because the truth wasn't bad enough they had to fabricate large parts of the story? Whoever made this apparently flunked out of film school. The writing, acting and cinematography are terrible.

I wouldn't waste your time watching this. At the end of the movie I questioned why Netflix would stream this one. It is hard to have any compassion for a murderess who shot 7 men in cold blood. Peyton List does her best portraying her but it just falls short. The other actors in this are just so-so. Skip this one and watch something else,

Peyton List is a beautiful young actress who was really good in the Kobra Kai series. Hopefully this movie will become known as the low point in her budding career, cause she can only go up from this disaster. Hope to see much more of her in the future.

Love you, Peyton ---- but I'm really embarrassed for you.

Idolize the serial killer,bad production and frilling acting.best of all short playtime.dont make more,br tgom.

I really don't understand the point of this movie, why they even made it. It's almost as if they had another script with just a run-of-the-mill thriller and then just attached Aileens name to it. Nothing about this movie is true to life except for the fact that yes, Aileen has been married to a millionaire at one point, and the relationship ended after she hit this older man with his own walking cane. This movie is such a tragedy since the girl playing Aileen actually does a very good job at it. This entire movie is just a treasure trove of missed opportunity. They pitched it as a "prequel" to the movie Monster but then why not also make it that? For instance they had her brother in there for maybe a few minutes, but there was more to that story. She did not kill her brother like this movie suggests, she loved her brother, a lot. Then there is her youth, her up bringing, everything that they just did not use for this story. At all. If you want to learn all about Aileen I suggest you check out the documentaries "The Selling of a serial killer" and "Life and death of a serial killer" both by the same creator. I wish the creators of this movie had seen those documentaries and used the information in them. This movie could have been great, instead we're stuck now with this work of fiction that watches more like a soap opera. Its made up, it isn't real, and it even does a very poor job at that.
