I'm Mexican and I am aware that my country is surreal at times, but this documentary man, I felt like I was watching a circus, the music made it all feel really strange and creepy. The murders were gruesome and the way it was all arranged made me feel like they were making fun of it, I had nightmares the day I watched it. The comments the authorities made were for me sort of disrespectful, and the way the are portrayed is not shocking but peculiar. None the less it is an interesting subject and the story telling is not confusing. Hope this documentary shine some light and at least help the people who are wrongfully imprisoned released.

Not bad very straight forward! Crazy on the motive tho she probly had it tough growing up wish they had more details about her younger years Very sad for the loss of their grandmothers the years and amount of people that were killed were crazy. Mexico had never seen a serial killer before, that topic was new to the authorities at the time made it very challenging to them to capture her. Conclusion very good doc kept me very interested from the get go never was I drifted attention from it kept on getting more and more interested, I don't get the bad reviews this doc is better than 80% of the garbage that is shown on net !

Very interesting and well produced documentary. Although I agree that the background music can be annoying at times, this does not affect the final quality. The reproductions of the crime scenes and especially the capture of the killer were done with great finesse. Finally, I have seen other documentaries that deal with real crimes in Mexico and what stands out is the completely flawed justice system, it is not a Democratic State of Law, with respect to fundamental guarantees, which is regrettable. The duration is also a positive point, as there were no uninteresting parallel narratives, really focusing on what mattered, including in a very artistic way.

I really enjoy Netflix documentaries, they are regularly well made and researched. However as others have said the background music for this documentary is absolutely awful and makes the very serious subject matter seem farcical. If I was the family members featured in the show I would find it an insulting and disrespectful. I managed to watch fifteen minutes of it and had to give up , what makes it even worse is that the soundtrack is loud and also drowns out some of the speech. I don't understand how this gets past any checks, I really hope in the future we can have an option to turn off background music on documentaries.

Sorry I couldn't watch it beyond 15 mins only because of the music. The background music was a comedy music on a serial killer movie. Like seriously??? Makers should learn some basics of filmmaking. The case seemed interesting but unfortunately it couldn't create a connecting because of terrible music choice. I love watching serial killers documentaries, I have watched so many of them on Netflix itself and loved also, for me to get disappointed is very hard. I was so annoyed by the music, hard work of so many people in making the movie and so much money got spoiled just because of the wrong choice made in music.

This true crime documentary is well crafted and well investigated. The case of la mataviejitas was a big deal in Mexico in the early 2000s. Some reviewers complain about some of the investigative theories made by the authorities but: i) that has nothing to do with the documentary and ii) that is the way judicial and criminal procedures were handled -and still are in many cases-. The documentary in itself is relevant and presents testimony from journalists, lawyers, the DA, the ADA, the family and friends of victims and experts in forensic medicine. I believe this documentary manages to capture how it was living in Mexico in the early 2000s.

La Dama Del Silencio. El Caso Mataviejitas (or The Lady Of Silence for the English title) is a Spanish spoken documentary about one of the most famous female serial killers in Mexico. It's well made and informative so I don't get the one star reviews and ratings but everybody is entitled to their opinion. Like always with serial killers cases it's astonishing what kind of mistakes the police forces and investigators made. When you see that innocent people (well at least they're not murderers) are still rotting in jail you can only be ashamed that something like this is still possible in this era. Well it's Mexico so nothing surprises me from a country known for its corruption. Funny (that's sarcastically said) to hear a police officer say that they were surprised to have a serial killer in their country. Let's not forget Mexico is ranked thirteenth in the world for murder rate per capita. So allow me to feel slightly amused to hear such nonsense from a government official. Anyway, I thought this documentary was easy to follow and entertaining if you like true crime documentaries about serial killers.

God this one was a very chilling and very well documented documentary, this case was a big thing in the late 90s and early-late 2000s in Mexico. I was not mentally aware at the time when this woman commited her crimes cause I was still a kid, but now watching her story and all the terrifying and evil things she did, my god she was a terrible human being. I learned more about this case with this documentary, it has comments from some of the police department people that were working at the time, and family members of some of the victims of this woman. I am not a fan of documentaries but this one really gave me the chills, I highly recommend watching it.

I'm a documentary buff, crime and otherwise. I don't know who made the executive decision to put all of the cartoon music in the back ground...but it was a terrible decision. It took away from the quality of the documentary. A little would have been okay maybe but it was CONSTANT. If this was not my first time hearing of these crimes, I would have turned it off. The story was covered from law enforcement, witnesses, and victims impacted. The music was so terrible I am writing this review and I haven't even finished the whole thing. I wish Netflix had an edited version without the crazy music smh.

This true-crime documentary film starts off like any other. There's a series of sensationalistic murders and the film goes in depth to explain the investigation. The brief outline is that Mexico was shocked by a serial killer who was active in the late 1980s to Mid 1990s, and this serial killer prayed upon the elderly. Then it departs from that narrative to talk about three things that are very important. Firstly, it mentions that at the same time, in Juarez, nearly 300 women were killed, and this didn't attract any attention at all in the Mexican press due to the fact that these were poor women, and they were women. Second, it mentions the way the Killer was portrayed. She was a middle-aged woman who was killing elderly women for financial benefit. But because she was a fan of wrestling they said that she was super strong and super masculine, even though she was never actually a wrestler herself. The investigation went into a number of dead ends because of the conviction of the Mexican police that the culprit was a man pretending to be a woman. And the last thread it picks up is the fact that several people were tried and convicted of crimes that were probably done by this serial killer and yet they are still in prison, one even died in prison. If you like true Crime this documentary is a must-see.
