Paradise Lost 3: Purgatory

Directors Joe Berlinger and Bruce Sinofsky's third part of the trilogy brings closure to the notorious case with an bittersweet happy ending that came at a great price for the West Memphis Three, Damian Echols, Jason Baldwin and Jesse Misskelly. After 17 years in prison, the WM3 have turned into remarkable men which is astonishing in itself while their supporters have obtained more evidence that proves their innocence with the help of renowned experts and new witnesses the authorities never bothered with. The evidence also sheds light on the actual killer who's still on the loose. The real shame lies in the Arkansas justice system that stood behind the incompetent police department lead by Gary Gitchell and trial judge David Burnett who will bear the stain in their names for the injustice. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
