latest true-crime docuseries to captivate audiences by revisiting the twisted story of Australian serial killer Eric Edgar Cooke. ET has the first look at the four-part series created and directed by Thomas Meadmore, who explains why now is the right time to revisit this 1960s killer and the fallout that followed. “If you speak to anyone in Perth, the city where the crimes took place, and mention the name Eric Edgar Cooke,” Meadmore says, “someone will have a story and you’ll be captivated by how passionately they recount it.”Starting in 1959, Cooke went on a four-year killing spree, upending the quiet Western Australia community forever.
