The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst (HBO)
- Thread starter dontreadthis
- Start date
I found out about this when checking out the thread on that new Netflix original "Making a Murderer" "gonna check that out.
I ran through all 6 episodes on a row. I never heard about the case prior to it thankfully so everything was brand new.
Man, when they showed the ending of episode 5 it reminded me of Zodiac. Plus the ending of episode 6 is literally more chilling than any horror film.
I love when documentaries place emphasis on detail in their reenactments such as a shadow of Bob walking his dog, all the envelopes in the mail truck, etc. all that makes it more vivid.
One crime documentary that comes to mind that yall should check out is The Imposter. Super dope.
Question. When a movie comes out, it makes a money at box office. This is a mini-series direct to HBO, how does it gross?

Finished this last night 
Robert Durst is one creepy sociopathic muthafukka. That "confession" at the end caught me off guard even though I knew this dude was guilty as hell. Wonder how many people he has killed total? Money defenitely buys you freedom.

Yeah thats why I wanted to bump this. My brother recommended this to me after making a murderer. Both shows were lit and had a ton of injustices but i prefered MAM over Jinx. Both crazy cases tho.

I think dude wanted to get caught. He said "I wanted this". Regardless that confession wont get him locked up, he can claim he was talking to himself about some other shyt and with his money, hell get off again. Really sounded like 2 demons talking to eachother in that confession tho.
Just watched this over the past week. There were so many 
moments, but nothing topped how he got off for murdering that old guy in Galveston.
If you ever wonder why people vote against their best interests, just listen to those two jurors they interviewed explaining why they voted not guilty. My fukking god.
The bald juror saying Durst has just had the worst luck in the world and people need to leave him alone...Durst admitted to chopping up the body of a man he killed, placing the body parts in garbage bags and dumping them into the bay so nobody would find out and you're telling us he's just been a victim of bad luck. Just...wow.
That NYPD detective Michael Struk...shouldn't this guy be getting investigated too? Holy shyt, he blatantly ignored the entire case, regardless of the evidence and Durst's lying. Who else did he do that too?
Robert's brother Douglas is a fukking creep too. I honestly couldn't feel bad if Robert somehow killed him. That guy's been covering for Robert for over 30 years and comes across as a complete a$$hole.
The endings of the last two episodes.
More eyes on here need to watch this.

I actually did a paper on this in a business class in college. They make money off of subscriptions and stock pretty much. They swear they don't get paid for product placemen, but it's kinda hard to believe they don't after watching every single show or movie making use of some blatantly obvious product.

Robert Durst is the GOAT. Me and my girl quote him all the time. Always talking about the can of raid spray. Dont let somebody say cadaver or Beverly around us
