A small town famous for being the childhood home of Mark Twain is stirring headlines for a more sinister reason. The disappearance of Christina Whittaker from Hannibal, Missouri, is the subject of a new true-crime docuseries. It details filmmaker Christina Fontana's obsession with finding out what really happened to the 21-year-old who vanished on November 13, 2009, leaving behind a 6-month-old baby girl. Despite hundreds of theories, Fontana said Whittaker's mother has her mind made up and though Whittaker still remains missing, not all hope is lost.

Though Relentless is a bit lacking in style, the twists and turns the story takes more than make up for it. Go to Full Review

Chantel P @Chanteezy18 Dec 24 The first three episodes we're a little slower but I think it really portrays how this case has played out in real life... Slow moving with a lot of dead ends and a lot of hurdles. However, it's the last three episodes where things really speed up and get momentum with mind-boggling events and shocking twists and turns. Once you make it past the first 3 episodes then you won't regret it and you won't be able to turn it off. See more P S @Cageddrama Dec 17 I loved this. Couldn’t stop watching. Well done. See more Jill P Jul 28 If you’re interested in an amateur documentarian’s every tortured thought process, go for it. If you’d rather invest those 6 hours of your time in a more artfully, fully-realized work, keep looking. In more seasoned hands this story could’ve been a contender, alas. See more CM C 06/30/2024 Promising premise, but terribly executed. It’s all over the place, the documentarian is an amateur, and they don’t resolve anything. I’ll put it like this; I watched this several years ago, shortly after it was released. Yesterday, I watched the trailer and decided I’d give it a try. It wasn’t until late in the second episode that I had already seen it. Unmemorable See more Joe N 06/30/2024 Some of the most terrible "journalism" I have ever seen. The naivete and cognitive dissonace of the documentarian was relentlessy frustrating, as she desparetely leapt from one circumstantial theory to the next, addicted to deluding herself that she was constantly "on the verge" of solving the case. See more Ramey J 06/26/2024 6 hours of my life I will never get back. Lots of fruitless filler material and fake tears. Very untrustworthy journalism and tasteless accusations.
