Some great titles mentioned here that I have forgotten about.

I'd like to show some love for ED GEIN,starring Steve Railsback and Carrie Snodgrass.Its one of the most subtle serial killer flicks Ive ever seen.I love the patience the director exhibits in the telling of Gein's tale.

Yeh man Joe Coleman is a really fascinating person and his artwork is amazing. The Rest In Pieces documentary was excellent. I first discovered him through the documentary Mondo New York and the book Apocalypse Culture. I'd love to get the poster for Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer he did the artwork for. But yeh I'm a big fan for sure.

I loved Memories of Murder from South Korea. I didn't even realize it was based on a true story when I saw it. I'm not sure how fictionalized it was though. Going a bit more mainstream, how about Zodiac?

As far as I know, no movie has ever been made about these serial killers:

Prolific:

Pedro Lopez
Luis Alfredo Garavito
Javed Iqbal
Harold Shipman

Bone-Chillingly Sadistic:

Fred And Rose West
Gary Heidnik
Dean Corll
Joseph Kallinger

What others?

I just saw 10 Rillington Place, mentioned a couple times in this thread. A chilling movie. Attenborrough is truly frightening in his quiet portrayal.
