Number 1 without a doubt: Texas Most Wanted!

That one was sad indeed. The one for me is "Shot in the face". Particularly the part when he was chasing her through the forest yelling "Where do you think you're going? You aint going no where" over and over again.

I totally agree with you Zero on the "Debby" (shot in the face) one. Also the Gretchen Burford one. Where she's running away from him yelling "he stabbed me" was very chilling!

The New Hampshire serial killer one where he's chasing and stabbing the pregnant woman should also be included on this list.

Most dramatic segment for me was the young lady whose face was literally sliced off by a boat propellor. I am so bad names, so I can't recall her name....

All of those are on my list for most dramatic! I still get chills when I think of the lady who was shot in the face!

some of the reenactments for the ghost stories have kept me up many a nights worrying

the queen mary episode always makes me scared still, it's very dramatic with all the sound effects and children laughing, footprints etc.

I'm still creeped out by the I-70 killer. I was just thinking yesterday while having an unsolved mysteries marathon on my tivo how awful the people they portrayed were. One of the guys (lyle moody maybe) robbed 17 banks AND killed his wife. Unbelievable.

DEFINATELY the Gretchen Burford segment. I remember seeing this segment when I was about 11 or 12, and it scared the crap out of me! Even now, I can still hear her cry, "He STABBED me!" as she staggers out of the car. I thought it was an interesting twist of irony that she was a defense attorney. I'm in law school now, and I still find this case heartwrenching.

Another one that was really creepy for me was the woman (can't remember her name) who was missing and then there were phone calls placed that stated that the woman was alive and in Omaha. Not exactly dramatic, but creepy as heck.

Ooh... also the one where the young mother was murdered by the two men that shoved her off the tall rock cliff. I just saw a re-ariing of this segment on UM recently... the guy backs her up to the edge of the cliff, whispers, "Bye," and shoves her off while she lets out this bloodcurling scream.

I want to say that the daughter she left behind was named April... or the woman's name was April. Anyone else remember what I'm talking about?

Zero · 11-27-2005, 03:58 PM

I know what you're talking about but I'm bad with names when it comes to UM too! There was another episode like that where they used this psychic to give details on the show. She said the lady was picked up by someone she knew and he drove her to a cliff and shoved her off. I don't recall what he tried to do to her before or why he got so angry. No reason to kill someone.

The woman that was so coldheartedly shoved off the cliff was named Sherry Lyall Hart.

I would say one of, if not the, most dramatic and well-produced segments from UM was the Dennis DePue one. I liked how they started with the completely random encounter with the couple driving along the road and catching him dumping a bloody sheet, changing his license plates and them noticing the blood-spattered passenger door. They then introduced the DePue family and the situation that went on with them, and then the murder. The grief from Marilyn's mother was moving too, with her quote "If she died in an automobile accident, you could get over it. But not this."

The update was excellent too, with the re-enactment of Dennis packing up and leaving as his segment was coming up next (complete with the "coming up next" music blaring from the TV), Stack introducing the climax of the update with the update music I like so much, and finally Stack reappearing and quoting DePue from one of his letters "a life for a life. He had no idea how true those words would be".
