Synopsis

Eighty-four victims. Four killers. One twisted obsession.

Examining one of the most taboo subjects across almost all cultures, this disturbing documentary takes an in-depth look at Andrei Chikatilo, Arthur Shawcross, Jeffrey Dahmer and Issei Segawa -- cannibal killers responsible for a collective 84 deaths.

The film features extensive interviews with Shawcross and Segawa, as well as insights from historians and scholars on what drives these people to commit such shocking crimes.

Is there something that ties the psychology of these four men together? Or are they simply aberrations in society, killers whose taboo crimes defy explanation?

Credits: For 3M Television: Produced and Directed by Katharine English; Producer: Daniel Korn; Executive Producer: Simon Berthon. For HBO: Producer: John Hoffman; Editor: Juliet Weber; Post-Production Supervisor and Researcher: Susan Heimbinder: Production Executive: Susan Benaroya; Executive Producer: Sheila Nevins.
