Description
In 1912, an entire family in small-town Iowa was killed by an unknown assailant; the Villisca Axe Murders, as the case came to be known, stunned the community and the nation. A series of sensationalistic, inconclusive trials ensued, but the true killer remains unknown. This fascinating but respectful documentary from filmmakers Kelly and Tammy Rundle looks at the crime's impact on Villisca and the surrounding area, examines various theories about the murder, and uses modern forensic techniques to shed new light on a possible solution.
