Mesmerizing look at "monsters"

Cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer and Son-of-Sam serial killer David Berkowitz are two of the most notorious names in the annals of American crime. This disc from NBC News brings new details to both their stories with exclusive jail-house interviews of the murderers. Dahmer is interviewed by Stone Phillips in prison, and comes across as a little boy who hopes he doesn't get in too much trouble for what he's done. Berkowitz, in his interviews, offers new theories about his crimes -- he says he had help, and that the other killers are still out there. To me, he's convincing. You decide. Great bonus features: extra interview moments with Dahmer and with his father, Lionel - who has tried for years to figure out what HE did to create a son who could commit such crimes. March 7, 2006
