Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media The sensational true crime series is a glimpse into the lives of the people closest to the alleged Long Island serial killer in hope of revealing how he may have been able to get away with multiple murders. Jun 30, 2025 Full Review Joel Keller Decider Just the fact that Rex Heuermann’s wife and daughter are interviewed makes The Gilgo Beach Killer: House Of Secrets worth watching. We just wish the docuseries was structured a bit differently than it is. Jun 12, 2025 Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut This is all fascinating in how it positions this docuseries in the midst of a case with no clear answers, filmed during a period of uncertainty where evidence and public sentiment swayed this way and that. Rated: 3.5/5 Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

David F This was an okay true crime documentary. It was a little over the top in its sensationalism but the real interest here is in the interviews with the killer's family. They react with disbelief and confusion, totally understandably, as they too are put through something they didn’t ask for. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/28/25 Full Review Sue C I just watched all 3 episodes of this extraordinary Peacock documentary which examines the heart-breaking trust and tenderness of a Long Island family shattered by the ultra-devious architect of serial murders - Rex Heuermann. And they have trusting hearts and decades of unsuspecting family photos to prove it - the loving wife who wonders if her meals, her sex wasn't good enough, the stepson standing in a sea of belongings torn asunder by CSI not once but twice, the once-little daughter in her communion veil, sweet and unsuspecting - until now. Although Rex has said, in jail, that investigators won't find anything, they have found mountains of evidence - and although this documentary is extraordinary in its detailed account, the police know even more that was omitted from "The Gilgo Beach Killer: House of Secrets." Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/15/25 Full Review Tonia R Captured me from the start by detailing the background of the story. Then with the inside views of the house and interviews with his family, I was hooked! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/11/25 Full Review Read all reviews
