The Craigslist Killer (2011)

In the heart of Boston, Philip Markoff, a shining beacon of Boston University's medical school, stands on the precipice of a promising future. His straight A record is set to pave his way to a wealth of lucrative opportunities post-graduation, and love has found him in the form of fellow med-student Megan McAllister. The self-made charmer, who toiled endlessly to finance his education, has not only won Megan's heart but also the approval of her affluent New Jersey parents. He artfully keeps his own dysfunctional family at a safe distance, all the while planning their upcoming wedding. However, beneath this shroud of normalcy lurks a dark alter-ego, one that indulges in the illicit corners of the internet. Markoff posts concealed selfies on Craigslist's erotic services, inviting encounters with women who share his proclivities for bondage and travesty. These online dalliances, however, turn sinister, leading to a string of abuses, and ultimately, a brutal murder. "The Craigslist Killer" plunges into the enigmatic world Markoff conducts online, a stark contrast to the life he's meticulously built with Megan. Unbeknownst to those who admire him, his violent tendencies are only known to him and his unsuspecting victims. When the NYPD detectives Bennett and Frye connect Markoff to the savage murder of a masseuse who advertised on Craigslist, the investigation spirals, revealing his connection to several other attacks on women. As the evidence against Markoff mounts, Megan remains steadfast, blinded by love and faith in the man she thought she knew. However, the reality of Philip's double life begins to unravel following his failed suicide attempt in jail, leading to an ultimate confrontation. "The Craigslist Killer" is a chilling tale of a promising future stained by a hidden, dark past, a testament to the terrifying depths of human duplicity.

The Craigslist Killer is a drama movie featuring Anderson Cooper and directed by Stephen T. Kay.
