Best True Crime Series On Netflix Australia Right Now


Ah, Netflix. How do we love thee? Let us count the ways. For underrated chick flicks, for rom-coms, for movies to watch after a horrific breakup that make us laugh and/or cry, for fictional horror that makes us sleep with the lights on.


Another reason? For ultra-spooky true crime series.


True crime—literally: things centred on real crimes, usually utilising real witnesses and suspects—is one of our favourite genres for podcasts and books, so it makes sense that we gravitate towards them on film, too.


And considering Netflix has one of the best selections of true crime series, it's practically a crime (sorry) not to tune in.
