I'm left with mixed feelings. The 70s atmosphere was brilliantly crafted, and I've always had a fascination with killer stories (especially serial ones), so one might expect me to enjoy this one. However, the pacing felt sluggish at times, and those constant time jumps really grated on my nerves. 3*-
