After tackling Ted Bundy, Johny Wayne Gacy, and Jeffrey Dahmer, the latest installment in the “Conversations with a Killer” true crime docuseries focuses one of the greatest manhunts in New York City history.

Directed by Joe Berlinger (Paradise Lost, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2), “Conversations with a Killer: The Son of Sam Tapes” will premiere July 30 on Netflix.

The three-part series takes viewers inside the NYPD’s desperate race to catch the infamous .44-caliber killer—and into the disturbing mind of David Berkowitz himself.

Newly unearthed recordings offer rare insight into his twisted psyche, revealing what was going through his mind as he unleashed a reign of terror in the late 1970s. Alongside firsthand accounts from cops, journalists, and survivors, the series unpacks how fear spread through the streets, fueled by cryptic letters, a frenzied press, and a killer who seemed to be everywhere and nowhere at once.

“At the heart of ‘Conversations with a Killer’ lies a commitment to unraveling the complex minds of notorious criminals while providing a space for those closest to the crimes to find closure,” said Berlinger. “With ‘The Son of Sam Tapes,’ we delve into the world of David Berkowitz and his chilling influence on 1970s New York City.

“These rare tapes reveal unnerving insights into his psyche, shedding light on the intricate details of the case and the pervasive fear that gripped the city. Through these tapes, we hope to not only revisit history, but to bring clarity and depth to a narrative that has long intrigued and unsettled the public.”
