Anybody have any suggestions? I'm currently obsessed with early forensics and that crime era. Scotland Yard-ish, Black Museum kinda stuff. Jack the Ripper in the UK, Leopold and Loeb in the States, etc. Can't get enough of it on youtube...just curious if there's more out there.

Haven't seen this one but have it on my watch list. Sounds like what you're looking for.

Not quite turn of the century, but a strange story nonetheless. Albert Fish, one the sickest sickos ever born...

Albert Fish, the horrific true story of elderly cannibal, sadomasochist, and serial killer, who lured children to their deaths in Depression-era New York City. Distorting biblical tales, Albert Fish takes the themes of pain, torture, atonement and suffering literally as he preys on victims to torture and sacrifice.

Hadn't heard about Holmes, but just saw a 50-min youtube doc on him. All I can say is wow. I know Albert Fish's story...sick fuck.
