Mindhunter Season 2 Dives Into the BTK Killer's Horrifying Murders
Image Sources: Getty, NetflixThe BTK killer Dennis Rader, and the actor who plays him, Sonny Valicenti.
David Fincher's harrowing Netflix drama Mindhunter has returned for season two, and its subject matter is just as creepy as ever. While the crime drama digs into the lives and crimes of numerous serial killers interviewed by FBI agents Holden Ford (Jonathan Groff) and Bill Tench (Holt McCallany) as usual, it continues tugging on the thread of the BTK killer, who's subtly introduced through brief scenes scattered throughout season one (in which he's never outright named by his BTK moniker, only shown in his telling ADT uniform). But in the new episodes, Mindhunter makes it clear who he is from the get-go, and spotlights some particularly harrowing details of his murders and his victims.
The BTK (which stands for "bind, torture, kill") Killer - aka Dennis Rader, who's portrayed in the show by actor Sonny Valicenti - murdered 10 people in Kansas between the years of 1974 and 1991. Mindhunter's first season takes place in 1977, when the BTK Killer had already killed five people, though we're not privy to the details of those crimes until season two. That's when Tench is introduced to a detective investigating the case in Kansas, who fills him in on the 1974 murders of the Otero family in Wichita that January: father Joseph Otero (38), mother Julie Otero (33), son Joseph Otero Jr. (9), and daughter Josephine Otero (11). A few months later, in April of that same year, he also murdered Kathryn Bright (whom he stabbed and strangled) and attempted to kill her brother.
The case of Kathy Bright is discussed in great detail in the season's second episode when Bill meets up with her brother, Kevin Bright. He was present during the time of his sister's murder and was nearly killed himself when the BTK killer shot him twice in the face, leaving him with severe nerve damage. He viscerally describes the attack on him and his sister at her home that April, giving viewers a full picture of how disturbing and horrific Rader's murders really were. Unfortunately, Kathy was far from the last person he killed.

In 1977, Rader strangled two more women to death: Shirley Vian and Nancy Fox. Not long after the death of the latter, in early 1978, he sent a letter to Wichita TV station KAKE to claim responsibility for the murders of Fox, Vian, Bright, and the Orteros. It was in this letter that he attempted to make himself in the image of other notorious serial killers like the "Son of Sam" (aka David Richard Berkowitz, who also appears in season two) by suggesting multiple names for himself.
"He's studying them. Modeling himself after them," Ford tells Tench in episode two of the new season after reading Rader's letter. "He's christening himself for the media."
Nevertheless, newspapers and TV networks ran with the "BTK" abbreviation, and Wichita was forced to accept that a serial killer was indeed on the loose. His next attempted murder was of Anna Williams, aged 63, in 1979, but she was spared since she arrived home much later than usual (Rader explained in his confession that he got tired of waiting for her). Nearly six years later, in April 1985, he killed Marine Hedge, aged 53. Her body was found in May in a ditch after Rader had photographed her corpse in bondage positions at the Christ Lutheran Church where he served as president of the church council.
Although he was initially thought to have killed three members of the Fager family in Wichita in 1988, police do not believe he was actually responsible. Instead his next (and last) murder was of Dolores E. Davis, who was found on Feb. 1, 1991 in Park City, Kansas. She had been killed by Rader a few weeks earlier in January.

The BTK Killer famously liked to send communications to law enforcement as well as news outlets, taunting them and providing evidence that he committed various crimes. It was through one of these communications that he was identified and arrested, when a floppy disk was found to contain metadata that led law enforcement to Rader. In August 2005, Rader was finally caught and sentenced to 10 consecutive life sentences.
Given Mindhunter's current timeline, it will be interesting to see if the show ever shows us a glimpse of Rader being caught and imprisoned. Perhaps that will be something explored in season three, if Netflix decides to renew the series.

The Sweet and Funny True Story That Inspired Blinded by the Light
The latest jukebox musical is Blinded by the Light, and you might be surprised to learn that the Bruce Springsteen tribute is based on a true story! Set in the 1980s and telling the story of a British Pakistani teen who becomes a Springsteen fan, it's closely based on the life of writer Sarfraz Manzoor, as well as some of the memories of his friend and director, Bend It Like Beckham's Gurinder Chadha.
To get to Blinded by the Light, we have to go through Greetings From Bury Park, Manzoor's autobiographical novel. In the novel, he describes how he grew up feeling like a misfit, but became inspired to begin writing his own lyrics and poetry after being introduced to Springsteen's music. The film portrays a somewhat fictionalized version of Manzoor's memories, taking creative liberties where necessary.
"I really wanted it to be both fictional but also true at the same time," Manzoor told Refinery29. A few of the changes involved in adapting his real story for the screen included adding a love interest character (which he jokingly admits didn't exist in his real high-school life) and ramping up the tension between his character and the character of his father. Although Manzoor, like many teenagers, clashed with his parents, his father didn't actually have a problem with him buying tickets to see Springsteen.
"The reason [we added that moment] is I had loads of issues with my dad, but rather than making them all kind of concentrated, we just crystallized it into a single moment," he explained in his Refinery29 interview. The overarching plot of the movie, though, in which the Manzoor character gains confidence in himself through his experiences with Springsteen's music, is true to life.
There's one fun detail in the movie that is simultaneously true to life and not true to life, Manzoor explained. The name of "his" character in the film is Javed, and from a certain perspective, that's Manzoor's name too.
"The letter took quite a while to get to him, and by the time it got there, he said, 'Okay, so we're going to call him Sarfraz.' But in the time that it had taken the letters to get there and come back, my mom had already named me Javed; that's what my mom calls me now," he says. "So, he is me and he's not me."
Manzoor isn't the only member of the creative team whose life was deeply affected by Springsteen's music. Director Chadha tells CNN that she had similar experiences, and, in fact, their shared love for Springsteen is what brought her and Manzoor together years ago.
"The first time you see Bruce live it's a spiritual thing. The way he does his live sets, there's so much energy, but there's so much integrity about what he's saying, what his words are and how he introduces his songs," she said. "I was like, 'This is it, this man is just going to change my life . . . I was a hard-bitten fan and then I read an article by Sarfraz in one of the papers and I'm like, 'Oh my God, there's another Asian person that is into Springsteen. That's how we became friends."
Chadha even got to get Springsteen's blessing for the project when she seized a moment during a red carpet event.
"I went, 'Hi Bruce, my name is Gurinder, I did Bend It Like Beckham. I want to make a movie of this, please can you help us?' He sort of went, 'Sounds good.' And I thought, 'Oh my God, did that just happen?'"

The series' '80s setting has been a foundation for an eclectic mix of classic funk, folk, and rock and roll. Because the latest season focuses on a case affecting the black community in Atlanta, it draws greatly from African American music during that era, including hits by The Doobie Brothers and Grace Jones. We also hear sounds from rock legends such as Patti Smith, Pat Benatar, and The Police. The second installation even features a Charles Manson song, which might just be the definition of spine-chilling. To hear all of the musical gems from this season of Mindhunter, scroll on ahead!

The Where'd You Go, Bernadette? Soundtrack Has Us All in an Adventurous Mood
After what seems like forever, Where'd You Go, Bernadette is finally here. The film, starring Cate Blanchett, Billy Crudup, and many more of Hollywood's elite, is based on the book by the same name.
