Geraldo Rivera The Sons of Sam
We may soon run out of renowned historical situations to analyze for true-crime shows. After recent series on the Night Stalker and Ted Bundy murders, Netflix has launched “The Sons of Sam: A Descent Into Darkness,” a documentary about the late 1970s Sons of Sam killings in New York City.
The fact that the title and subject differ by one letter is the impetus for this story: We follow the late investigative journalist Maury Terry as he begins to suspect that the murders for which David Berkowitz was convicted were part of a broader scheme centered on a cult with possible connections to other crimes and the Manson family.
Terry passed away in 2015, but filmmaker Joshua Zeman obtained his notes and asked Paul Giamatti to read them aloud. Terry was “captivated by the unfolding drama of the 44 Caliber Killer,” as Son of Sam was initially dubbed, and wondered “where he would strike next,” he tells us.
Once Berkowitz was apprehended, the attention moved to uncovering the story behind the story, culminating in a rare jailhouse interview with Berkowitz. The interview itself hints at an uncommon feature of “The Sons of Sam”: so much of this has already been played out in public.
Terry’s focus was on a possible link between Berkowitz’s crimes and Satan worship; in archive footage, we see Maury Povich, Geraldo Rivera, and no less than Tom Brokaw all reporting along the same lines.
Much of “The Sons of Sam’s” purpose is to resurface previously publicized pieces of a story and apply principles that Terry was never able to verify.
“The Sons of Sam” is so long that it starts to sour the viewer’s impression of what should be a sympathetic subject. The recreation of the deeds of the Son of Sam is harsh, and what follows usually has the misty feel of unfinished notes.
