FRED AND ROSE WEST: A BRITISH HORROR STORY

Married couple Fred and Rose West were two of the United Kingdom’s most notorious serial k*llers. Between 1967 and 1987, they murdered at least 12 young women and teen girls – including Freds eight year old daughter Charmaine – in their Gloucestershire home, subsequently coined the ‘House of Horrors’. They would inflict horrific torture, including and s*xual abuse, on their victims before taking their lives. Their bodies would be dismembered in their basement and buried on the property. This documentary features archival footage and recent interviews with a former neighbour, the West’s former babysitter, journalists and the surviving West children, exposing their depraved acts from the time they first met up until their eventual incarceration. Police audio recordings from their arrests are disturbing and serve as a chilling insight into psychopathy, while demonstrating how quickly one perpetrator can turn against another. Fred West took his own life in jail before standing trial, leaving justice unfulfilled. Rose West was convicted of 10 murders and remains behind bars, serving a life sentence. These vile individuals committed the most evil acts and their crimes continue to shock and horrify today.
