It was hard back then to understand that someone could not try to get away from a psychopath like Starkweather. It was before people like Elizabeth Smart, Patty Hearst, and Shawn Hornbeck. All of them had opportunity at some point to leave their abusive captures but didn't. She obviously was afraid, and had no reason to help him kill for the one great reasons that they all seemed to look over and that was that she broke up with him! That was the whole catalyst for him going to her house in the first place! He was obsessed with her! I imagine she was terrified and did whatever she knew how to do to survive. She probably even gave Charlie Starkweather the impression that she didn't want to leave him so he wouldn't kill her, and that could be why he said she was in all the way. He was also bitter that she turned against him. He was a ruthless killer that murdered a baby! To believe anything he said was a sign to how much they wanted to fry Caril.
And Old Charlie Road the LIGHTNING! My Girlfriend lived in Nebraska when this happened, She was 12 years old at the time. It still bothers Her. Thanks You for putting this out for us.
I am so excited for the opportunity to watch such a great work of art of action and direction. They were such a great actor and actress and playing like super super stars. We never seen anymore things like carol face mimics or Charles body jestures. I really enjoyed this movie and I want to send all of my appreciation to all of people who worked and made this picture of art. Yet I can't believe that I came about this movie just by chance. Thanks for upload and sharing. I will put its link in my social pages to help more people enjoy this beautiful work. No price for it. They were sincerely great people.
There was one movie that I seen on lifetime that Brian played in that was awesome that I can't remember the name to so I came download it to watch it. It was a true story about a guy who terrized a whole town.
Wow this was such an awesome movie despite it being a true story. Even today we still have sad cases like this. But the acting was very good. Thank you MegaZerOTV for uploading this. Fairuza is one of my favorite actresses.
This reminds me so much of the Dad who incriminated his daughter Cinnamon who was this age..(14) killed her Mother & told her to go in the doghouse cause theyd never convict a child......he did this to his OWN child! So he could screw Cinnamons 17,yr old stepsister
+Priscilla Crow That was her attorney's choice though. It wasn't because she couldn't testify at his trial, he didn't allow her to so she wouldn't incriminate herself.
Thank You MegaZerOTV for sharing this sad and suspenseful movie as it's amazing how Tim Roth plays a psychopathic killer while Fairuza Balk played a young and naive 14 year old girlfriend in this true story about Charlie Starkweather. Also enjoyed seeing Brian Denehy and Randy Quaid within this stellar cast who all played their roles very well. It was very shocking at some scenes and thrilling. Definitely worth watching. G'day from Sydney Australia😌😊
She married in 2007. Also, she has always maintained her innocence. That story has never changed, like all other guilty people's will. Charles even originally said she was innocent and that he held her hostage, but because he felt backstabbed by her, he blamed her for some of the crimes.
My grandfather was a prison guard while Starkweather was in there and on the day he was put to death. I am a lincoln born child but born after all of this. However, My mother and siblings including my grandparents were around during these murders. He is buried not far from my parents. The cemetery had removed his grave stone because people while destroying it.
THE ACTOR IS GOOD.....but the actress is SUPERB IN EVERY MEANS......I HAVEN'T SEEN SUCH AN ACTRESS AT HER AGE AND EVEN IN THOSE WHO ARE MATURE AND PROFESSIONALS.....!
She. Did not have maturity to know what was really happening. A 14 yr old now would be more mature than a 14 yr old then. I don't think she was helping him voluntary when he started to kill. He was holding her hostage physically and mentally.
The Mrs. says: I went to a small country school in 1957, there was a little teeny boy who got picked on by the other big over fed country boys, he would run to us girls and we would stick up for him, he was very gentle and wanted to design ladies fancy clothes, so we new he would never be a mans man, he was like our little boy and so we protected him. come Christmas time he came to school with these little packages and gave each of us girls a present, they were beautiful scarves, he made them all different prints and I was so happy, I had nothing and that was a treasure, he hand sewed each one and the boys knew they were never going to pick on him again so they gave up and leaved us alone with our little fashion designer. I so prayed he would be successful and have a great life, when I left that country school he was the one I will never forget. We always told him Jimmy, be big in your mind and you will be rich and happy.
From everything i read and pictures ive seen, Caril was a sullen bad tempered teenager who hated her little sister and being told what to do by her mother and stepfather. Did she think he would kill them? Nope but at time she couldve ran to the police but she didnt. She was numb? Bullocks. She was having fun and only decided to play the victim when she got caught. Her tears and outburst show her childish logic that she shouldn't pay the concequences of her actions. I think Starkweather told the truth he didnt have any reason to lie at that point he was going to die anyway.
If he was lying I agree with the comment above. He was selfish and was going to make sure no one could have her. Unfortunately Charlie is dead so we may never know if she was really involved.
How would you account for the note signed by Miss Bartlett--a two year old who couldn't read-- and one of the victim's books found in the road? Also being Starkweather's girlfriend is NOT a bullet-proof vest. Fugate had better do as Starkweather says or she would be just as dead as the victims. Also this took place before the Patricia Hearst case. Patricia Heart was kidnapped by the Symbonese Liberation Army and was locked in a closet for 60 days. Hearst was next seen holding a rifle in a bank robbery so people said she was an accomplice. I think that Fugate and Hearst was in similar situation--you better comply or you won't survive.
Charles Starkweather was a mean and cruel young man who only wanted to watch the world burn. When it became clear to Starkweather that he would not be able to kill more victims and that his destiny was the electric chair, that is when he chose to hurt Caril Ann Fugate. After all, what was his motive for confessing that he killed all the victims?
@@neptunedawn7121 Patty Hearst was from a rich, prominent family of course she would get off. Any defense would do. If she were poor girl she’d still be in prison.
she still maintains that she was innocent....i mean there is just no remorse in that woman which is quiet scary really. i cannot believe people are backing her up.
Good movie. Watched it off and on over the course of a week and a half. I wasn't really familiar with this case before, and found it interesting. Really good acting too!
In reality,of all 17 counts Charlie was given chair on one count of killing Robert Janson, as victims mother was good friend of this prosecutor. It is true, that Ann had many opportunities to run for help or alert authorities but she was under impression that if she did so, Charlie will harm her parents, she was a kid, u tell a 8th grader that I will kill ur parents if u did this or that, won't he be terrorized. It's very easy to manipulate kids. Jury didn't buy Ann's hostage story n gave her life.
As a Criminal Justice Major this movie is an excellent example of how criminal law is illustrated. From a critical analysis, I found several key issues that could have been argued on an appellate level. Such issues consisted of whether Caril should have been tried as a juvenile, whether the prosecution was prejudicial in presenting the case and during trial proceedings. Furthermore, the defense should not have been over ruled on several aspects. In addition, the presiding judge seemed some what biased towards the defense. As far as Stark weather is concerned, my perception of him is such that he was the town bad boy that went to great lengths to exploit anyone to get what he wanted and still refused to take accountability for his actions. Nevertheless, this movie is a must watch.
+Michkie Marschall Not everything in this movie is presented as it really was at the time. There was some "literary license" taken here....and some footage that is not actually verified as fact.
+Michkie Marschall As a Canadian I am always perplexed and shocked each time I see minors tried as adults in American courtrooms. I don't understand how a person's age can be ignored based on the crime of which they're accused. Either you have juvenile laws for juveniles, and adult laws for adults, or you just have laws and you disregard age altogether. Why have the pretence of making a distinction between the two when it can be ignored whenever the prosecution feels like it? In Canada many citizens are outraged at the lenient sentences shown to minors in our system for even severe crimes, and I am one of them. But I still believe we have to take the age of the accused into consideration when they're tried. It makes no sense to me whatsoever to try a 14 year old as an adult, for the very important reason that they are NOT an adult. How did this even get started in American courts?
Do you think the fact that Caril Anne Fugate was a minor at the time of the murders and trail was the reason why she didn't get the death penalty? Or maybe because she's a woman? Do you think any of those factors played into her sentence? Or was it something else?
klassicalmuzik I think that might have been part of it....but they also had to wonder how much she may have been influenced or manipulated by him...or even fearful of him. Hard to say, I guess. I'll bet somebody at the time of this happening had asked that question as well.
+Michkie Marschall I'm confused about the manner of death for the baby and surprised this didn't come up during the trial. The coroner said her skull was crushed with a blunt object but Chuck said he threw a knife at her. In an interview with Caril in the 80's she said she couldn't believe anyone could think she would be able to be in the house with Chuck while he put a gun in her little sisters mouth. It doesn't seem very clear how the poor baby was killed.
I'm 40 and don't know how I'd react to witnessing a person I trusted kill someone. If I was 14, I'd be so in shock, especially in those more innocent times where such incidences we're almost unheard of.
In much of America in 1958 societies innocence was to the degree that many didn't even lock their house doors when leaving for work or to run errands! I know about that as I was ten during that year, beginning fifth grade in that September.
This is a fairly accurate description of Starkweather-Fugate killing spree. Even though it inspired a lot of movies (Badlands in 1973, Natural Born Killers in 1995, notably), only this one shines as long as accuracy goes. And also, the actors on screen are really convicing, too, adding just right dose of drama to keep your interest.
She was 14 year's old ,she tried to leave a note in the bathroom but he wouldn't give her any room ,then when he got caught and found out she didn't want to go down with him ,he didn't defend her in in fact he lied !!!
This is the true crime story retold as a movie in a two part series. It focuses on the the 11 killings Charles Starkweather along with his girlfriend Caril Anne Fugate took part in. Lincoln, Nebraska was a horrid time to be living in 1958.
This so much reminds me of the Dad who incriminated his own daughter Cinnamon at this age (14)of killing his wife so he could screw her 17 yr old sister......so very sad! Cinnamon day in jail for years til she finally realized what a dog her dad was abs she wore a wire & GOT Sweet revenge
What a fine bunch of acting, by almost the entire cast. One thing I always find funny: They have people like Starkweather and Manson swear on a Bible to tell the truth. How can anyone that that seriously? After you've bumped off a dozen epople, who gives a shit about perjury? Just sayin'.... Thanks for posting this gem.
lots of people who lie during interrogations will turn around and tell the truth once theyve taken the oath. evidently for many it makes a difference. but certainly not for psycopaths or personality disorders...they will lie as long as it suits them regardless...
I felt so sad when she burst out in court, I'm the same age as she was in the movie and I felt her pain. I could feel how scared she was seeing everyone who had a say in her fait believe the lies he was saying, feeling so helpless and scared. My heart would break if I was put in that situation, and as much as I'd like to believe that I would be strong enough, brave enough to stand up to him or escape I don't think I could, I would have done what he said in fear of death, and more specifically pain. And as much as any person says they couldn't kill someone, they can, there is a certain situations for everyone to make anyone do anything. And that's a fact. I would have held tight and tried to survive hoping that if I was saved that the people in charge of everything would make things right but as proven here people brake the rules that are put there for a reason and put innocent people in jail, for what reason I don't know. When the person at the top with the most power in the situation breaks a rule to benefit one then the rest falls. You need to stick to what is written and what is right. Every rule has a purpose and you have to follow them all for any of them to work. I don't know why people see her as guilty, they would have done the same if put in her situation, anyone would and if they hadn't just like the man defending her said they would have been dead very quickly.
@@eugeniaskelley5194 sorry I'm a little confused on which part your talking about, do you mean even an adult would do whatever they said to stay alive?
A year after this film, Nebraska executed Harold Lamont "Willie" Otey in the electric chair in 1994 and two others followed to Nebraska's electric chair whom were serial killer John Joseph Joubert in 1996 and Robert E. Williams in 1997. In 2018, Carey Dean Moore was executed by lethal injection in Nebraska.
If Charles Starkwather would have remained in Wyoming to face the Gas Chamber, he more than likely would never been executed. Since the Governor of Wyoming was very anti death penalty. Charlie fried his own bacon when he said that he didn't like the smell of gas.
vocalist777 yes that’s right, human skin smells of burned/grilled pig. The more the skin is prone to produce oils or has deep layers of fat, the more the smells will have a scent of burned/old used pig fat/overcook oils. You can smell this odor, while having hot laser surgery with local anesthetic, or having hot laser wound sealing. I had 6 hot laser interventions of different types mainly for removing part of the gums that were overlapping some teeth, skin with abnormal dangerous formations, a tonsillectomy’s, and sealing surgery wounds. Sorry if I seem weird, but after the smell and being empty of food for one day, before surgery, the only thing I was able to think about was a pork chop or barbecue pork ribs.
Then how can you not believe in the death penalty? The death penalty is not just a punishment. It is also ment to be a deterent, to protect the rest of society.
Charlie Starkweather reminds me of Charlie Manson, only Starkweather did his own killings. Even if Carol Fugate had to help him, she never seemed interested in helping Charlie. It was more like one of those things where she didn't have a choice.
This reminds me of the Meagan Grunwald case in Utah. Her ex-boyfriend forced her to go with him and drive the car. He killed a cop, he in turn was killed, and the judge sentenced her 25 to life. Prior to meeting the loser ex-boyfriend she had a bright academic career, was involved in 4H, etc. I think she wanted to break up with him too. The judge had the nerve to tell her that she should somehow known he was evil. Oh really? How can a 17 year old have the life experience to always recognize evil early on? There are women in their 30's, 40's, and 50's who have been married to serial killers and not known it! An entire NATION (Germany) did not recognize evil until it was far too late ! Now how could a 14 year old have known exactly what to do ?!?
+sbarr10 I agree that at 14 she wouldn't have known exactly what to do, but I don't think she is as innocent as she wants people to believe. I also don't think she killed anyone and is a guilty as Chuck said she was. The truth, obviously, lies somewhere between their two stories and we will never know the whole truth. I thought she was pretty innocent until she was caught in 2 big lies.1. That she didn't know her family was dead but she told the officer she ran to that she watched him kill them and 2. That she didn't know how to shoot a gun when she had stated she did previously. Although I don't think she was casually laying on her bed in her room watching TV while he killed her family.
Let's see...terrified tries to getaway cop just sitting there and she wants him to know how dangerous this guy is. I could see someone claiming to witness murders they didn't just to getaway from that person. I believe her saying she can't shoot a gun was in imediate defense to them suggesting to kill Charlie. Where she just don't have it in her to kill anybody. Trust me if she did from the way he dragged her and treated her, she would've killed him already. Not everyone has a strong state of mind and sometimes you'll never know what you'd unless you was in that situation.
Thanks for the account. I am sure that others including myself would appreciate any other info you may have, first person accounts are always interesting.
Charlie Starkweather’s girlfriend - Caril Ann Fugate, 14 when she was arrested in the murder spree that shocked Nebraska and numbed the nation - was in critical condition late Tuesday after a rollover Monday night in Michigan. The crash killed her 81-year-old husband, Frederick A. Clair, who was driving north on Interstate 69 when his 1997 Ford Explorer drifted off the right side of the road, cut left across two lanes of traffic and rolled in the median. LINCOLN STAR JOURNAL NEWSPAPER
I think this TV movie, Murder in the Heartland, should be released onto DVD. This 1993 adaptation to the story of Charles Starkweather and his murders back in 1958 in Nebraska, is a good version. Since O'Hara-Horowitz Productions and New World International TV own the rights to this movie, maybe some studio that has released some rare TV Shows and/or TV movies onto DVD in the last 5 years, or so. Maybe even Mill Creek or Echo Bridge could put this on DVD. Many Nebraskans, like me, would buy.
Shows the mentality of the time frame.That a Government could not tell the difference in a killer and a captive.Mr Denahey was FANTASTIC! MR,Quad was Great. Move shows a lot,!
Wow this movie is good and sad. To think evil is around every corner it’s hard to be kindhearted to strangers why we see actual people in need of help but we keep it moving because people like Charlie Now & Days gotta love your neighbor and fellow man from a distance. I don’t think that’s what God intended this world to be like. 🤦🏽♀️ 🤦🏽♀️ 🤦🏽♀️ 😢 Brilliant acting Thank you for the upload I watched part 1&2 on your channel 👍🏾💎🍿🎥🍷🥰
I notice people tend to forget she was a 14 year old child. And everyone treated her as an adult. No saint probably. ... but still a child. That didn't seem to mean much back then.
Wow randy Quaid was so very funny in Christmas vacation and in this movie as a law man and he excelled in this role. He is a versatile actor that can't be type cast. He is dynamic in this picture. And Tim Roth 8 never knew he was English I am amazed at his skill to master multiple accents.
That cop that picked her up must be the most stupid person ever. How did he even pass police training school? He comes upon a crime in progress, a girl running to him for help, two guys fighting, and one with a rifle. He sits and looks at this like he just doesn't know what to do. Sorry Nebraska, that you had such incompetence in law enforcement.
If Charles Starkweather stayed in Wyoming, he more than likely would have never been executed. He fried his own bacon when he said, I don't like the smell of gas. The governor of Wyoming, at the time was very much against the death penalty. If Charlie only had known, but he was a cocky mass murderer, so he was electrocuted. This was a really good movie. I'm not usually a fan of made for tv movies. Another one to check out is, "Murder In Coweta County" (1983) starring Andy Griffith and Johnny Cash. Which was based on the true story of John Wallace, in Georgia. It took place in the late 1940s. Andy Griffith did a great job in his performance (You won't watch The Andy Griffith Show, the same way, at least in the short term) of John Wallace. Johnny Cash was great as well, as Sheriff Lamar Potts. John was convicted and executed in Georgia's electric chair in 1950. It's worth a watch.
Good movie. Glad she was convicted... I don't feel sorry for criminals and their associates. She was old enough to have a sexual relationship so glad she was tried as an adult. You commit adult crime, be prepared to do adult time.
Old enough to have sex, that's your definition of adulthood? Fascinating. Do I even want to know what the line is for you as to what is or isn't "adult crime"? I suspect I don't.
Even if she said she was present when her family died it does not mean her guilty she was scaredtraumaized confused and her story of innocence has never wavered
Not to make excuses but seems Starkweather was severely picked on when he was young which at least in part led to his demeanor and his crimes. As for Caril, I believe she was highly manipulated. There was no physical evidence (required by law) to convict her and obviously the letter she had written was destroyed by the prosecution. I feel she was convicted primarily by guilt by association and probably shouldn't have been sentenced for so long if at all. She had no past record of any violent behavior and was a model prisoner up until her release.
Dear Michael, what you said is true and what every sane logical minded person would say. Except, that you have overlooked the circling vultures ie the politician with their sanctimonious preaching, baying for blood for justice with an eye for the voters come election time. No change, leopards can't change their spots. Politicians are a breed of contemptible people. We have 630 of them in Westminster.
I too was severely picked on (bullied) as a kid and outcast most of my life, however, I did not become a mass murderer or serial killer. Starkweather developed a thirst for control and killing, this making him a psychopath. Killers like him, Bundy, Manson and his followers already had it in them to kill.
yes she is. She got married to a man that is quite a bit older than her. They were in a serious car accident about 3 months ago I'm sure if you look it up you'll find the entire story which is to long to post here. I think her las name is now CLAIR. LOOK IN LINCOLN STAR JOURNAL NEWS PAPER .
This movie is really good the Actress that plays Carol is a awesome actress iloved her in the craft and The Waterboy that movie was Soo funny. 😂😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣😋😅 God Bless y'all 😇🙏🙏💖💘🙏💕
I think Fugate should've got life without. She was just as guilty as he was even by the depiction in this movie she could've raised the alarm at any time. I do believe she knew her parents and sister were dead.
Then you obviously don't believe in PTSD because that's what sh was suffering from. Your saying if you thought you were going to be killed you would still dear to do anything against a psycho, people like you have no compassion who believe that a girl with no trobling behavior before this turns into a killer overnight.
39:18-39:20, the best scene in the movie; by far hats off to the actor portraying what you call the profession! I may need to write a novel based on this profession, but doubtful that we even use these guys anymore
Sad movie to watch based on true storu. But seeing someone life taken for eleven others signified justice. I was totally against death penalty until i was put I'm situation of seeing many lives taken and someone putting me through hell for years I wish Canada had death penalty!
Having Brian Dennehy in the cast makes this movie extra special. I loved him in anything he did. He was one of THE BEST actors ever.
He really was phenomenal.

She was paroled in 1976. It was quite controversial at the time. Many people came to believe that she was innocent. Me, I'm not sure.

Thank You MegaZerOTV for sharing this sad and suspenseful movie as it's amazing how Tim Roth plays a psychopathic killer while Fairuza Balk played a young and naive 14 year old girlfriend in this true story about Charlie Starkweather. Also enjoyed seeing Brian Denehy and Randy Quaid within this stellar cast who all played their roles very well. It was very shocking at some scenes and thrilling. Definitely worth watching. G'day from Sydney Australia😌😊
It helps Tim Roth's cause because he has a menacing face and facial expressions. In other words he has the ideal face to play a psychopath
She married in 2007. Also, she has always maintained her innocence. That story has never changed, like all other guilty people's will. Charles even originally said she was innocent and that he held her hostage, but because he felt backstabbed by her, he blamed her for some of the crimes.
My grandfather was a prison guard while Starkweather was in there and on the day he was put to death. I am a lincoln born child but born after all of this. However, My mother and siblings including my grandparents were around during these murders. He is buried not far from my parents. The cemetery had removed his grave stone because people while destroying it.
THE ACTOR IS GOOD.....but the actress is SUPERB IN EVERY MEANS......I HAVEN'T SEEN SUCH AN ACTRESS AT HER AGE AND EVEN IN THOSE WHO ARE MATURE AND PROFESSIONALS.....!
She. Did not have maturity to know what was really happening. A 14 yr old now would be more mature than a 14 yr old then. I don't think she was helping him voluntary when he started to kill. He was holding her hostage physically and mentally.
The Mrs. says: I went to a small country school in 1957, there was a little teeny boy who got picked on by the other big over fed country boys, he would run to us girls and we would stick up for him, he was very gentle and wanted to design ladies fancy clothes, so we new he would never be a mans man, he was like our little boy and so we protected him. come Christmas time he came to school with these little packages and gave each of us girls a present, they were beautiful scarves, he made them all different prints and I was so happy, I had nothing and that was a treasure, he hand sewed each one and the boys knew they were never going to pick on him again so they gave up and leaved us alone with our little fashion designer. I so prayed he would be successful and have a great life, when I left that country school he was the one I will never forget. We always told him Jimmy, be big in your mind and you will be rich and happy.
What happened in the end to Jimmy? Don't leave us hanging lol 😁
brilliant movie , Thank you for uploading.
Thanks for posting this movie!
The moral of the story is to choose your friends wisely.
Girls want their bad boys.
Huh???
Yah, and she was 14 years old. Even as an adult you just never know about a person.
I came across this movie quite by accident and in return had a great evening. Thanks.

Me too. I've been wanting to see it, so was really happy that it popped up.
@@MariaEspinoza-cr2gj Huh?
@@Dreamskater100 - Exactly!
That was an odd comment.
Thank you very much for uploading this great film!!
A tragic true crime story, and well acted by the all star cast, especially Brian Dennehy and Randy Quaid...
From everything i read and pictures ive seen, Caril was a sullen bad tempered teenager who hated her little sister and being told what to do by her mother and stepfather. Did she think he would kill them? Nope but at time she couldve ran to the police but she didnt. She was numb? Bullocks. She was having fun and only decided to play the victim when she got caught. Her tears and outburst show her childish logic that she shouldn't pay the concequences of her actions. I think Starkweather told the truth he didnt have any reason to lie at that point he was going to die anyway.
EXACTLY!!!
If he was lying I agree with the comment above. He was selfish and was going to make sure no one could have her. Unfortunately Charlie is dead so we may never know if she was really involved.
How would you account for the note signed by Miss Bartlett--a two year old who couldn't read-- and one of the victim's books found in the road? Also being Starkweather's girlfriend is NOT a bullet-proof vest. Fugate had better do as Starkweather says or she would be just as dead as the victims. Also this took place before the Patricia Hearst case. Patricia Heart was kidnapped by the Symbonese Liberation Army and was locked in a closet for 60 days. Hearst was next seen holding a rifle in a bank robbery so people said she was an accomplice. I think that Fugate and Hearst was in similar situation--you better comply or you won't survive.
Charles Starkweather was a mean and cruel young man who only wanted to watch the world burn. When it became clear to Starkweather that he would not be able to kill more victims and that his destiny was the electric chair, that is when he chose to hurt Caril Ann Fugate. After all, what was his motive for confessing that he killed all the victims?
@@neptunedawn7121 Patty Hearst was from a rich, prominent family of course she would get off. Any defense would do. If she were poor girl she’d still be in prison.
she still maintains that she was innocent....i mean there is just no remorse in that woman which is quiet scary really. i cannot believe people are backing her up.
Well how would she have any remorse, for something she didn't do
Just hit on any film and hope for the best and WOW what a film it was amazing thanks for the upload best film in long time💪👍
Good movie. Watched it off and on over the course of a week and a half. I wasn't really familiar with this case before, and found it interesting. Really good acting too!
thanks for posting... cuz i get really bored at work and im running out of movies to watch that has substance.
The judge was "Uncle Frank" from the Home Alone movies.
@Bridgette Mildred I noticed that "Gus" was Roberts Blossom, the neighbor "Marley".
Also played Roland D. Lebay in "Christine"
I like how they show both sides of how Caril could’ve been an accomplice or hostage.
In reality,of all 17 counts Charlie was given chair on one count of killing Robert Janson, as victims mother was good friend of this prosecutor. It is true, that Ann had many opportunities to run for help or alert authorities but she was under impression that if she did so, Charlie will harm her parents, she was a kid, u tell a 8th grader that I will kill ur parents if u did this or that, won't he be terrorized. It's very easy to manipulate kids. Jury didn't buy Ann's hostage story n gave her life.
Out of all the counts to get the death penalty for, it should of been for the baby.
She was paroled in 1976, so not really life.
As a Criminal Justice Major this movie is an excellent example of how criminal law is illustrated. From a critical analysis, I found several key issues that could have been argued on an appellate level. Such issues consisted of whether Caril should have been tried as a juvenile, whether the prosecution was prejudicial in presenting the case and during trial proceedings. Furthermore, the defense should not have been over ruled on several aspects. In addition, the presiding judge seemed some what biased towards the defense. As far as Stark weather is concerned, my perception of him is such that he was the town bad boy that went to great lengths to exploit anyone to get what he wanted and still refused to take accountability for his actions. Nevertheless, this movie is a must watch.
+Michkie Marschall Not everything in this movie is presented as it really was at the time. There was some "literary license" taken here....and some footage that is not actually verified as fact.
+Michkie Marschall As a Canadian I am always perplexed and shocked each time I see minors tried as adults in American courtrooms. I don't understand how a person's age can be ignored based on the crime of which they're accused. Either you have juvenile laws for juveniles, and adult laws for adults, or you just have laws and you disregard age altogether. Why have the pretence of making a distinction between the two when it can be ignored whenever the prosecution feels like it? In Canada many citizens are outraged at the lenient sentences shown to minors in our system for even severe crimes, and I am one of them. But I still believe we have to take the age of the accused into consideration when they're tried. It makes no sense to me whatsoever to try a 14 year old as an adult, for the very important reason that they are NOT an adult. How did this even get started in American courts?
Do you think the fact that Caril Anne Fugate was a minor at the time of the murders and trail was the reason why she didn't get the death penalty? Or maybe because she's a woman? Do you think any of those factors played into her sentence? Or was it something else?
klassicalmuzik
I think that might have been part of it....but they also had to wonder how much she may have been influenced or manipulated by him...or even fearful of him. Hard to say, I guess. I'll bet somebody at the time of this happening had asked that question as well.
+Michkie Marschall I'm confused about the manner of death for the baby and surprised this didn't come up during the trial. The coroner said her skull was crushed with a blunt object but Chuck said he threw a knife at her. In an interview with Caril in the 80's she said she couldn't believe anyone could think she would be able to be in the house with Chuck while he put a gun in her little sisters mouth. It doesn't seem very clear how the poor baby was killed.
I'm 40 and don't know how I'd react to witnessing a person I trusted kill someone. If I was 14, I'd be so in shock, especially in those more innocent times where such incidences we're almost unheard of.
In much of America in 1958 societies innocence was to the degree that many didn't even lock their house doors when leaving for work or to run errands! I know about that as I was ten during that year, beginning fifth grade in that September.
This is a fairly accurate description of Starkweather-Fugate killing spree. Even though it inspired a lot of movies (Badlands in 1973, Natural Born Killers in 1995, notably), only this one shines as long as accuracy goes. And also, the actors on screen are really convicing, too, adding just right dose of drama to keep your interest.
She was as guilty as he was playing the innocent
Bring Back Hanging, Guillotine and the ELECTRIC CHAIR !!! SHE SHOULD NOT BE FREE
Yeah they make it seem like she was a sweet girl I don't believe it
She was innocent
She was 14!
You would of done the same as she did, anyone would
Wow. What a story! Thank you for uploading. Much appreciation!
I subscribed so keep the good coming! 😁
She was 14 year's old ,she tried to leave a note in the bathroom but he wouldn't give her any room ,then when he got caught and found out she didn't want to go down with him ,he didn't defend her in in fact he lied !!!
This is the true crime story retold as a movie in a two part series. It focuses on the the 11 killings Charles Starkweather along with his girlfriend Caril Anne Fugate took part in. Lincoln, Nebraska was a horrid time to be living in 1958.
This so much reminds me of the Dad who incriminated his own daughter Cinnamon at this age (14)of killing his wife so he could screw her 17 yr old sister......so very sad! Cinnamon day in jail for years til she finally realized what a dog her dad was abs she wore a wire & GOT Sweet revenge
Yah, I read that book. I feel so sorry for her.
May i know what's the name of the book
Just started part two, this movie is fucking crazy and I'm loving every minute!
Good movie! However, one question, trust the word of a criminal? Any 14 year old is going to do whatever a guy tells her, especially if he has a gun
What a fine bunch of acting, by almost the entire cast. One thing I always find funny: They have people like Starkweather and Manson swear on a Bible to tell the truth. How can anyone that that seriously? After you've bumped off a dozen epople, who gives a shit about perjury? Just sayin'.... Thanks for posting this gem.
lots of people who lie during interrogations will turn around and tell the truth once theyve taken the oath. evidently for many it makes a difference. but certainly not for psycopaths or personality disorders...they will lie as long as it suits them regardless...
Zanichbug innocent untill proven otherwise...except in Scotland.
I felt so sad when she burst out in court, I'm the same age as she was in the movie and I felt her pain. I could feel how scared she was seeing everyone who had a say in her fait believe the lies he was saying, feeling so helpless and scared. My heart would break if I was put in that situation, and as much as I'd like to believe that I would be strong enough, brave enough to stand up to him or escape I don't think I could, I would have done what he said in fear of death, and more specifically pain. And as much as any person says they couldn't kill someone, they can, there is a certain situations for everyone to make anyone do anything. And that's a fact. I would have held tight and tried to survive hoping that if I was saved that the people in charge of everything would make things right but as proven here people brake the rules that are put there for a reason and put innocent people in jail, for what reason I don't know. When the person at the top with the most power in the situation breaks a rule to benefit one then the rest falls. You need to stick to what is written and what is right. Every rule has a purpose and you have to follow them all for any of them to work. I don't know why people see her as guilty, they would have done the same if put in her situation, anyone would and if they hadn't just like the man defending her said they would have been dead very quickly.
Even adults would of done the same thing you just posted.
@@eugeniaskelley5194 sorry I'm a little confused on which part your talking about, do you mean even an adult would do whatever they said to stay alive?
@@hippodjc5194Yes being a horrific situation like that.
Caril fugate is not innocent and defiantly not a victim!! She is as guilty as sin... She is Satan on Earth.....
self defence??..you shot half of them in the back!!..lol
Realest shit ever!!!😂
A year after this film, Nebraska executed Harold Lamont "Willie" Otey in the electric chair in 1994 and two others followed to Nebraska's electric chair whom were serial killer John Joseph Joubert in 1996 and Robert E. Williams in 1997. In 2018, Carey Dean Moore was executed by lethal injection in Nebraska.
If Charles Starkwather would have remained in Wyoming to face the Gas Chamber, he more than likely would never been executed. Since the Governor of Wyoming was very anti death penalty. Charlie fried his own bacon when he said that he didn't like the smell of gas.
vocalist777 yes that’s right, human skin smells of burned/grilled pig. The more the skin is prone to produce oils or has deep layers of fat, the more the smells will have a scent of burned/old used pig fat/overcook oils. You can smell this odor, while having hot laser surgery with local anesthetic, or having hot laser wound sealing. I had 6 hot laser interventions of different types mainly for removing part of the gums that were overlapping some teeth, skin with abnormal dangerous formations, a tonsillectomy’s, and sealing surgery wounds. Sorry if I seem weird, but after the smell and being empty of food for one day, before surgery, the only thing I was able to think about was a pork chop or barbecue pork ribs.
What a great movie. Thank you for posting this.
I suppose we will never know, but I find it really hard to believe that she had no opportunities to escape from him.
She had and than she escaped him
Great movie.i have always been a fairizu ball fan.very good actress and tim Roth is tim roth.simply put. Thanks for upload 👍😊
Both part 1 & part 2 were great
Then how can you not believe in the death penalty? The death penalty is not just a punishment. It is also ment to be a deterent, to protect the rest of society.
Life sentence in max security does the job without the government murdering anyone
Deterrent or not, it sure stopped Starkweather from killing again!
very good movie, thank for upload
Charlie Starkweather reminds me of Charlie Manson, only Starkweather did his own killings. Even if Carol Fugate had to help him, she never seemed interested in helping Charlie. It was more like one of those things where she didn't have a choice.
Thank you for posting this
This reminds me of the Meagan Grunwald case in Utah. Her ex-boyfriend forced her to go with him and drive the car. He killed a cop, he in turn was killed, and the judge sentenced her 25 to life.
Prior to meeting the loser ex-boyfriend she had a bright academic career, was involved in 4H, etc. I think she wanted to break up with him too.
The judge had the nerve to tell her that she should somehow known he was evil. Oh really? How can a 17 year old have the life experience to always recognize evil early on? There are women in their 30's, 40's, and 50's who have been married to serial killers and not known it! An entire NATION (Germany) did not recognize evil until it was far too late !
Now how could a 14 year old have known exactly what to do ?!?
+sbarr10 I agree that at 14 she wouldn't have known exactly what to do, but I don't think she is as innocent as she wants people to believe. I also don't think she killed anyone and is a guilty as Chuck said she was. The truth, obviously, lies somewhere between their two stories and we will never know the whole truth. I thought she was pretty innocent until she was caught in 2 big lies.1. That she didn't know her family was dead but she told the officer she ran to that she watched him kill them and 2. That she didn't know how to shoot a gun when she had stated she did previously. Although I don't think she was casually laying on her bed in her room watching TV while he killed her family.
Let's see...terrified tries to getaway cop just sitting there and she wants him to know how dangerous this guy is. I could see someone claiming to witness murders they didn't just to getaway from that person. I believe her saying she can't shoot a gun was in imediate defense to them suggesting to kill Charlie. Where she just don't have it in her to kill anybody. Trust me if she did from the way he dragged her and treated her, she would've killed him already. Not everyone has a strong state of mind and sometimes you'll never know what you'd unless you was in that situation.
Spoiler why
Thanks for the account. I am sure that others including myself would appreciate any other info you may have, first person accounts are always interesting.
telling a lie a thousand times doesn't make it true
Charlie Starkweather’s girlfriend - Caril Ann Fugate, 14 when she was arrested in the murder spree that shocked Nebraska and numbed the nation - was in critical condition late Tuesday after a rollover Monday night in Michigan.
The crash killed her 81-year-old husband, Frederick A. Clair, who was driving north on Interstate 69 when his 1997 Ford Explorer drifted off the right side of the road, cut left across two lanes of traffic and rolled in the median. LINCOLN STAR JOURNAL NEWSPAPER
Collette s omfg you bad ...of course the way she was as a kid that shit IS hereditary so yeah I guess it's good news she never had kids...
I think this TV movie, Murder in the Heartland, should be released onto DVD. This 1993 adaptation to the story of Charles Starkweather and his murders back in 1958 in Nebraska, is a good version. Since O'Hara-Horowitz Productions and New World International TV own the rights to this movie, maybe some studio that has released some rare TV Shows and/or TV movies onto DVD in the last 5 years, or so. Maybe even Mill Creek or Echo Bridge could put this on DVD. Many Nebraskans, like me, would buy.
Very good movie,chilling performance from Tim Roth
Rest in Heavenly Peace Brian Dennehy!
Wonderful I everything he touched. Just a natural.
What a great movie not being and American I did not know about this case thank you for the opportunity of viewing it
Shows the mentality of the time frame.That a Government could not tell the difference in a killer and a captive.Mr Denahey was FANTASTIC! MR,Quad was Great. Move shows a lot,!
Wow this movie is good and sad. To think evil is around every corner it’s hard to be kindhearted to strangers why we see actual people in need of help but we keep it moving because people like Charlie Now & Days gotta love your neighbor and fellow man from a distance. I don’t think that’s what God intended this world to be like. 🤦🏽♀️ 🤦🏽♀️ 🤦🏽♀️ 😢 Brilliant acting Thank you for the upload I watched part 1&2 on your channel 👍🏾💎🍿🎥🍷🥰
Great movie! I haven’t seen this in years!
I notice people tend to forget she was a 14 year old child. And everyone treated her as an adult. No saint probably. ... but still a child. That didn't seem to mean much back then.
Very well done movie. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Wow randy Quaid was so very funny in Christmas vacation and in this movie as a law man and he excelled in this role. He is a versatile actor that can't be type cast. He is dynamic in this picture. And Tim Roth 8 never knew he was English I am amazed at his skill to master multiple accents.
That cop that picked her up must be the most stupid person ever. How did he even pass police training school?
He comes upon a crime in progress, a girl running to him for help, two guys fighting, and one with a rifle. He sits and looks at this like he just doesn't know what to do.
Sorry Nebraska, that you had such incompetence in law enforcement.
I felt bad for the girl 😞 he was in full control of her emotionally and mentally.
W T F
@Carl's Brother oh and YOU have. your highness. I keep forgetting that there are trolls like you on you tube.
@Carl's Brother and FYI, I am most certainly entitled to my own thoughts and opinions about this case.
If Charles Starkweather stayed in Wyoming, he more than likely would have never been executed. He fried his own bacon when he said, I don't like the smell of gas. The governor of Wyoming, at the time was very much against the death penalty. If Charlie only had known, but he was a cocky mass murderer, so he was electrocuted. This was a really good movie. I'm not usually a fan of made for tv movies. Another one to check out is, "Murder In Coweta County" (1983) starring Andy Griffith and Johnny Cash. Which was based on the true story of John Wallace, in Georgia. It took place in the late 1940s. Andy Griffith did a great job in his performance (You won't watch The Andy Griffith Show, the same way, at least in the short term) of John Wallace. Johnny Cash was great as well, as Sheriff Lamar Potts. John was convicted and executed in Georgia's electric chair in 1950. It's worth a watch.
Two thumbs up
She was recently in a deadly car crash this past Monday, August 5. Her husband died on the scene, and she's currently in critical condition.
Goes around, comes around love!!!!
Awwwwww....poor baby 😚
Good...
Good movie. Glad she was convicted... I don't feel sorry for criminals and their associates. She was old enough to have a sexual relationship so glad she was tried as an adult. You commit adult crime, be prepared to do adult time.
Old enough to have sex, that's your definition of adulthood? Fascinating. Do I even want to know what the line is for you as to what is or isn't "adult crime"? I suspect I don't.
Thanks for posting
Tim Roth at his very best...
All of this started where Belmont is now in Lincoln Nebraska. If you're from Lincoln, you know what I'm saying.
Very good movie. Thank you.
You have this serie with espanish subtitle.
I'm latina from Chile south América.
Thanks XD
powerful movie indeed. the moral is you should FIGHT the criminals and NEVER treat them as normal people.
Even if she said she was present when her family died it does not mean her guilty she was scaredtraumaized confused and her story of innocence has never wavered
bro thank you so mush
for uploding this movie
This is been a good movie so far I'd watch it again
Not to make excuses but seems Starkweather was severely picked on when he was young which at least in part led to his demeanor and his crimes. As for Caril, I believe she was highly manipulated. There was no physical evidence (required by law) to convict her and obviously the letter she had written was destroyed by the prosecution. I feel she was convicted primarily by guilt by association and probably shouldn't have been sentenced for so long if at all. She had no past record of any violent behavior and was a model prisoner up until her release.
Dear Michael, what you said is true and what every sane logical minded person would say. Except, that you have overlooked the circling vultures ie the politician with their sanctimonious preaching, baying for blood for justice with an eye for the voters come election time. No change, leopards can't change their spots. Politicians are a breed of contemptible people. We have 630 of them in Westminster.
I too was severely picked on (bullied) as a kid and outcast most of my life, however, I did not become a mass murderer or serial killer. Starkweather developed a thirst for control and killing, this making him a psychopath. Killers like him, Bundy, Manson and his followers already had it in them to kill.
At least she got free around 33ish years old, she still had a life ahead of her.
more than what her family had!!!
That’s bullshit
Thank you for the movie, I enjoyed it.
yes she is. She got married to a man that is quite a bit older than her. They were in a serious car accident about 3 months ago I'm sure if you look it up you'll find the entire story which is to long to post here. I think her las name is now CLAIR. LOOK IN LINCOLN STAR JOURNAL NEWS PAPER .
This movie is really good the Actress that plays Carol is a awesome actress iloved her in the craft and The Waterboy that movie was Soo funny. 😂😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣😋😅 God Bless y'all 😇🙏🙏💖💘🙏💕
WOW nothing complain.Thanks for posting I really enjoy this movie.
I think Fugate should've got life without. She was just as guilty as he was even by the depiction in this movie she could've raised the alarm at any time. I do believe she knew her parents and sister were dead.
Then you obviously don't believe in PTSD because that's what sh was suffering from. Your saying if you thought you were going to be killed you would still dear to do anything against a psycho, people like you have no compassion who believe that a girl with no trobling behavior before this turns into a killer overnight.
@@nancycottone2155 If that happened today she'd be in jail for life without. PTSD is AFTER the fact not before.
39:18-39:20, the best scene in the movie; by far hats off to the actor portraying what you call the profession! I may need to write a novel based on this profession, but doubtful that we even use these guys anymore
Sad movie to watch based on true storu. But seeing someone life taken for eleven others signified justice. I was totally against death penalty until i was put I'm situation of seeing many lives taken and someone putting me through hell for years
I wish Canada had death penalty!
Charles really had a standing ovation in the ol volts wagon ⚡⚡⚡⚡
They forgot to shave Charles's head at the end. His entire body would have been smoking too 😂
I honestly believe that Fugate was as guilty as Starkweather
