John Anderson Wall Street Journal 05/15/2021
Some of the visual elements of the series seem almost random at times... All the same, the setting of eastern Massachusetts provides something of a welcoming atmosphere for imaginary demons, and very real murder. Go to Full Review

Epix's Fall River reminded me of how well these kind of long-form investigative journalism pieces can be done. Go to Full Review

Overall, Fall River is a juicy bit of true-crime goodness. It's an interesting story that you probably haven't heard before. Just know that it is not as twisted and Satany as the trailers make it look. Go to Full Review

Dani M @matyd 12/16/2021 Lots of twists in this and it is well done. One of the constants is a sense of sadness as it is littered with broken, forgotten, abused and traumatized people, some of whom went on to abuse others. No satan or satan worship. Just very human monsters. See more Read all reviews
