This was super weird. The design is AWESOME. really really weird, but I was totally into it

I was really into this. The design is detailed and exciting and the performances are top notch. It is very non-linear and sometimes gets stuck on the poetry of the story, but overall I couldn't wait for each episode.

Tackling murder with a tinge of sexual violence, plus revenge fantasy is a tricky balancing act. This podcast is ambitious, overly designed so, but I think the end product is a garbled mess. Everything here just feels like a repeat of age old hoary tropes. The entitled villain lashing out at perceived rejection, the lovingly detailed descriptions of the women’s body parts, the barely there insight to what these women’s lives could have been if they weren’t so damned to be defined by their deaths in this narrative. This is Law & Order SVU with slightly more detective-sanctioned revenge and murdered woman greek chorus, and it left me with just as little insight.
