Confessions of a Serial Killer is a 1985 American horror film directed by Mark Blair. Preceding by one year, the film details a serial killer who, after being arrested, confesses to the murders of over 200 women.

Synopsis

Daniel Ray has been arrested and much to the surprise and horror of the police officers, he begins to confess to the murders of over 200 women. He also talks about his background as a childhood abuse victim and runaway before meeting Moon and Molly, who accompanied him on several of his murders. This proves to be too much for Sheriff Will Gaines to believe, only for Daniel Ray to describe the events that led to his capture and arrest.

Cast

AllMovie compared Confessions of a Serial Killer to the 1986 film , saying that "where Henry's flat, non-judgmental documentary style served to amplify the horror of the proceedings, this film's depiction of the killings draws too heavily on slasher-movie conventions, which rob the story of its potency". TV Guide gave the film a rating of 2 1/2 stars out of 4.
