Season 1 Review:
The three-part Netflix series “American Nightmare” from filmmakers Felicity Morris and Bernadette Higgins (“The Tinder Swindler”) still packs a sharp punch and feels like a fresh and comprehensive retelling of the story. The success of the docuseries comes in great part because Huskins and Quinn sat down for extensive interviews and are admirably forthcoming in their recollections of the ordeal they endured.
