Born To Kill Review

Born to Kill is a little depressing and a whole lot of creepy. Some things are a little bit cheesy and some of the acting can be hit and miss. Nevertheless, the disturbing story and the excellent performance by Jack Rowan make Born to Kill a must watch. In recent times, I do not believe there has been anything quite like Born To Kill. It is incredibly unique and that is a big plus when repetition is so common.

I’ve enjoyed each episode and can’t wait to see how the series ends. The 3rd episode scores an 8 out of 10. Catch up with past recaps of Born to Kill right now!
