Probably of much more interest to folks living in and around Germany.
planktonrules11 February 2017
As I sat and watched this German documentary, I found myself wondering why Netflix put it on their American site. After all, this story seems very localized to Germany and folks outside the country would likely not be all that interested in Neo-Nazis and three serial murderers. Now I am NOT minimizing the evil these folks did...I am just saying it's probably a film that would be far more interesting to Germans than others.

As far as the story goes, it's well made and seems pretty exhaustive and interesting. But I also wondered if many times the film was trying to imply things instead of actually saying it--such as the extent of government involvement with these people or in possibly shielding them.

The version currently streaming on Netflix in the States is the full version--nearly 90 minutes in length.

An inside look at right wing terrorism
annaferagamo8 October 2019
Great doc. I never heard about this story and it's pretty horrifying what these people did and how they got away with it for so long. I mean, these things still go on today. Very educational for those who don't know how neo-nazis operate and expand. This happened in the 90's, before the modern age of the internet. Same ideologies of right wing extremism that is on the rise today. The more you know .....

Fails to stay interesting

While Der NSU-Komplex (2016) tells an important story about German neo- Nazi times, it fails to stay interesting. I found myself being bored after watching it for thirty minutes and if it wasn't that I had to watch this for German class, I would have stopped watching it.

This documentary might have actually done a good job explaining the rise of the neo-Nazi during the last decade, but it didn't do a good job keeping the viewers interested, unfortunately.
