In this episode, we dive into one of the most disturbing true crime stories in Australian history: The Snowtown Murders. Also known as the “Bodies in Barrels” case, this series of killings left an entire community shaken and forever marked the small town of Snowtown with infamy. We’ll explore how John Bunting manipulated those around him, targeted society’s most vulnerable, and created an atmosphere of fear and control. The movie is told from the perspective of Jamie Vlassakis, a teenager drawn into Bunting’s world. Join us as we connect the real-life horrors with their cinematic portrayal, uncovering how the movie captures the suffocating dread of abuse, complicity, and violence.
