Director Michael’s Bay He is best known for big-budget action films such as Bad Boys, The Rock, Armageddonand the Transformers franchise, but has already begun work on its first docuseries on ID Channel, which is scheduled to air over the three-day Labor Day weekend.
The five-episode documentary series, Born Evil: The Serial Killer and the Saviorfollows the story of serial killer Hadden Clark, described as a “volatile psychopath,” as well as the unsolved cases linked to him. It also examines his relationship with a cellmate, to whom he confessed his crimes because he thought the convicted killer was Jesus.
Born Evil: The Serial Killer and the Savior examines “the inner workings of the volatile and dysfunctional Clark family, Hadden’s path to depravity, and the shocking confessions he made to his cellmate that have prompted investigators to try to solve cold cases allegedly linked to him.”
The docuseries features private, recorded conversations with Clark, conducted by Bay, and delves into the killer’s traumatic childhood, violent family history and unsolved cases linked to his prison confessions.
Other key figures interviewed include Hadden Clark’s brother, Geoff Clark, and Hadden Clark’s former cellmate, Jack Truitt (pictured above, with Bay), who Clark believed to be Jesus.
“Throughout my career, I have always focused on meeting real people, from scientists of all kinds to alligator farmers, from law enforcement officers to bank robbers and even kings and queens, to gain authentic insights into my films,” Bay said in a statement.
“Born bad is my first foray into documentary filmmaking, and it centers around a family of serial killers you’ve never heard of. The focus of this five-hour series is on the youngest son, Hadden Clark, who I spent countless hours speaking to in person in prison, so I could get inside the mind and psychology of a person the FBI has designated a “person of interest” in over 20 states. Born bad could potentially open the door to solving many unsolved murder cases.”
The docuseries will also draw on Hadden Clark’s personal journals and illustrations detailing his crimes, as well as interviews with law enforcement and victims’ loved ones.
“Michael Bay is one of the finest storytellers of our generation, and he gives us unprecedented access to one of the most terrifying serial killer stories in history,” said ID President Jason Sarlanis. “With Born badWe have ID’s next hit series and we deliver on our promise to bring viewers premium, true-crime content from the industry’s best filmmakers.”
