The Cecil Hotel doc is really good.  A bit stretched out but well done.

"A bit stretched out" to say the least. I found the story somewhat interesting, but I didn't think the documentary was very good. Partially for what you're saying...it's way too long. It could've been a single episode, maybe about an hour and a half. Give me the history of the hotel, some analysis of the elevator video, and then get to the point. But my God, leave out her tumblr posts, the pathetic "web sleuths," and conspiracy theories like the death metal singer possibly being the culprit, I couldn't believe how they went about it. It's like they wanted to make a doc about a supernatural, evil hotel, but all they had to work with was a tourist who drowned in a water tank, and the LAPD was too dumb to locate her body in a timely manner. 

I'm sorry....this documentary was 100% pure garbage. They could have told the story, which seemed pretty obvious early on, in about twenty minutes. 

Why on earth would we care what some fucking jokers on youtube think? "Web sleuths?" The fuck does that mean? And all their stupid theories were wrong anyway. They all probably now believe in qanon. 

I want those nearly fours of my life back. 

Also, I think the director was the guy who did that Ted Bundy documentary. Is that right? If so, wow, what a terrible follow up to a really well done doc.

Glad I saw this before I watched.  Have not watched the Night Stalker one yet, either. 

Love these types but don't need to waste time on the poorly done ones.

I thought Night Stalker was good. Cecil Hotel wasn't. I took a day off of work the day after I got the 2nd Covid vaccine because I wasn't feeling well. So I thought a four-part Netflix doc was a perfect way to spend the day. If I wasn't laying in bed with body aches, I would've probably quit in the middle of the second episode. But I watched on, and went from body aches from the vaccine, to a throbbing headache from the "documentary."

Night Stalker has good first-hand accounts from the two lead investigators on the case. Not creepy weirdos on YouTube that became obsessed with a girl they never met. And I mean OBSESSED. Not just trying to solve the case. Not just trying to exploit her disappearance for YouTube views. But some of them talk as if they knew her personally. 

I said in response to Gern Blansten that it "wasn't very good" but really, it's maybe the worst documentary I've ever seen. Check out Night Stalker, don't waste a second on Cecil Hotel.

Yeah those weirdos at the very end we're talking about her as if they were part of her family or something. When in reality they spent years exploiting her death her for clicks on their dumb youtube channels. Horrible documentary.

Glad to hear Night Stalker is good. Planning on watching that soon. 

In Night Stalker there's even about a five minute segment where they throw then Mayor Feinstein under the bus. Weird to see her in the 80's and not just in her 80's.

Started watching The Last Blockbuster late last night. Unfortunately fell asleep about 30 minutes into it. I was just really tired though.
