Horrific, disturbing and absolutely fascinating, Paradise Lost 2: Revelations, revisits the chilling mystery from HBO's award winning hit, Paradise Lost: The Child Murders At Robin Hood Hills. Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky bring new insight to the controversial case of three Arkansas teenagers convicted of murdering three 8-year-old boys.
Editor's Note
In this follow-up to the 1996 movie PARADISE LOST: THE CHILD MURDERS AT ROBIN HOOD HILLS, which investigated the true story of the brutal murders of three eight-year-old boys in Robin Hood Falls (an area of West Memphis, Arkansas), director Joe Berlinger returns to the same small town (without Bruce Sinofsky, his co-director of the first film) four years after the crime to examine its short-term impact. Originally released on HBO in early 2000, PARADISE LOST 2: REVELATIONS was screened in combination with a re-release of the original, PARADISE LOST: THE CHILD MURDERS AT ROBIN HOOD HILLS. The theatrical releases of these movies was in response to public outcry, much of which was generated by a web site at www.wm3.org that lobbied for public recognition of the crime and the questionable accusation, arrest, and conviction of three local teenagers.Berlinger and Sinofsky created yet another effective crime documentary in 1992 with their film BROTHER'S KEEPER.
