May 1999. Several missing person reports have led investigators here to an abandoned bank vault in Snowtown, Australia. Inside the vault are several barrels containing the results of a group of evil perpetrators. In 2011, the accounts of these men were captured in a searing thriller called The Snowtown Murders. And this film was inspired by a true story.
On this episode of Inspired By A True Story, we break down the true events of what happened in Snowtown, Australia, also known as the “Bodies in Barrels” case. What actually happened versus what transpired in the film, who was truly involved, and how far did these sadistic murderers go?
