The Boston Strangler (1968)

Crime drama

Grimly powerful account of the man who murdered 13 women in the Boston, Massachusetts area in the early 1960s, and the huge police effort to track him down. Shot in a semi-documentary style, the serious, unsensationalised film chillingly depicts Albert DeSalvo, the quiet blue-collar worker who committed the grisly crimes.
