Reviews

Karl Quinn
The Age (Australia)
Has strong echoes of the Southern Gothic genre in filmed drama... That's partly about the visual language (the series looks amazing), but chiefly it's because of the enormous gap between the wealthy and the dirt poor.

Director Matthew Galkin and journalist Ethan Brown compile riveting interviews with those around the murders to paint an ever more disturbing picture.

Murder in the Bayou might be set up for guilty pleasure viewing except for the effort it puts into establishing the context of the community and the crimes and the empathy behind the camera.
