The Zodiac Killer is one of the most famous and unidentified serial murderers in American history. The Zodiac Killer sent cryptic messages and taunting letters about the atrocious acts they have committed or plan to commit. In these cryptic messages, ancient and bizarre symbols were inserted and the Zodiac Killer claims to have hidden his real name within the code. The code has stumped and defied even the best code-breakers across the generations but new evidence and new clues will lead a team of top investigators and code-breakers into cracking the infamous Zodiac Killer's code.

Although the channel only made one episode available for review, it's enough to give you a sense of why the murders remain one of history's great unsolved cases. Go to Full Review

08/29/2021 Loved Ken Mains (Unsolved No More Channel on YouTube sub people you will not be disappointed) they were totally on to something. I always thought there were more than 1 zodiac and that 1 was a cop. Still do. Great show!!!! See more 03/28/2020 Loved it! If you are a true crime buff, you should watch! See more 04/25/2018 Fantastic! This is what I have been waiting for in regards to the Zodiac case. Finally a team of people who are actually experts that actually have access to the real evidence that are making real strides in solving this case. This series is addictive in definitely one that needs to be watched. the only obvious downside is that they haven't actually found the killer yet. I hope they do a season 2 and hopefully they continue the hunt until his identity is revealed. See more 01/28/2018 It was great so far. Can’t find out if there is more info on this See more 01/18/2018 Complete misleading BS. No witness ever reported the Zodiac as 6’2” they only told that lie to try to tie Zodiac to the early murder suspect that ways 6’2”. The only Zodiac witnesses including police officers reported the Zodiac as 5’8” to 5’10”. This is typical of the lies and manipulation they continually put up as fact to get people to watch. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME. If the are criminal enough to make a second season as I am sure they will since they are now calling episode 5 the “season finale”, please do yourself a favor and skip it!!!!! These “investigators” are idiots who are just trying to make money they have no detective skills whatsoever! See more 01/18/2018 Started OK...then turned into BS. So called z340 solve or half as it was....doesn't work.....Fake. Disappointed the further the show went. See more Read all reviews
