Netflix True Crime Docuseries 🎥 Review: “Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness”.

Rated: TV-MA Seven 47 min episodes and an IMDb of 8.1/10.

Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness, Over seven episodes, co-directors Eric Goode and Rebecca Chaiklin chart the course of Joe Exotic’s eccentric life and introduce viewers to other figures in the big cat world—in a story that involves polygamy, mysterious disappearances, heavy drug use, cult-like leaders and the exploitation of both humans and animals.

So I had no clue what this series was about till I started watching. I can tell you that once you start watching you get hooked and you will end up binging all 7 episodes. It’s too interesting on so many levels to stop. I also had no idea of the numbers of exotic animals in private Zoos across the US.

It starts out show casing an individual named Joe Exotic (self proclaimed Tiger King) and his private Zoo. Very interesting to watch, however within a short period of time the story line flips to something that is fraught with murder, mayhem and madness. Everyone featured in this series appears to be a pathological liar with various mental illnesses. The truth means nothing to these people.

Truth be told protecting the animals is the only thing we should care about here, but you’ll soon come to see that the people are the real animals.

Its a quick 6 hours of binging - easy peasy……….worth the time spent. You will be immersed in a plethora of information.
