YANCEY MCCORD: THE KILLER THAT ARIZONA FORGOT ABOUT

Cinemavixion Review

In the chilling documentary "Yancey McCord: The Killer That Arizona Forgot About," director Michael Jason Allen attempts to unearth the truth behind the infamous 1961 Kindred Township familicide. The film meticulously reconstructs the events surrounding the brutal murders of the Jenkins family, focusing on the perpetrator who, astonishingly, spent a mere 16 hours in custody before vanishing. Through a blend of dramatized reenactments and compelling interviews with individuals connected to the case, Allen and Gucci Mercer promise an inside look at a killer the authorities seemingly overlooked. While the film's IMDb rating of 3.4 suggests a divisive reception, its dedication to exploring a dark, forgotten chapter of Arizona's history offers a potentially gripping, albeit unsettling, viewing experience for fans of true crime and mystery.
