1. 27:30

   Barnes: "I've had some horrible dreams here, I mean absolutely… And especially since I got h…"
   Herzog: "Describe it."

   Talk about authoritative tone. Haha

2. in a weird way prison has saved him from mob justice know hes being slowly tortured knowing he will be killed cant say i have sympathy for a pathetic weak cowardly man.

3. Bring back public torturous execution..

4. I bet he'll come out on his last minutes saying if you want to know the body of another victim you'll have to stay the execution

5. I love the interviewers voice

6. Very creepy the way he said that kid still had a sheen "a glow"

7. I always wonder why no other country in the world has as many sick weirdos as the USA.

8. i am totally against murder by state!but when its about women killing torturing women and children in that cases actually i agree!!!!!!worst rats ever

9. at least he confessed about that murder, that we can respect

10. Does anybody now if james barnes is still alive? If he is, is there a date for his execution?

11. His father helped create the monster that is James Barnes.

    Complete narcissistic psychopath.

12. Noone cares about your ankles dude

13. I didn't know Arnold Schwarzenegger was German😂

14. Romania watching this.

15. A killer talk about humanity🤣🤣🤣🤣…seriously🤣🤣🤣

16. As a German, coming from a different historical background …….. Seriously mate? You are deluded Werner Hertzog!

17. His crimes are indescribable but for some reason, I find him likeable and real.At least he acknowledges what he’s done wrong

18. The father is the real criminal,james is a victim who commited serious crimes.

19. Powerful last statement

20. Everyone's talking about the parents as if this is the first killer that came from an abusive home. Almost all murderers are the product of their shitty parents. It's not news.

21. qué gran artista es Herzog

22. This guy is highly intelligent.

23. Excellent series. Werner Herzog has an amazing filmography for anyone not familiar with his work.
    I definitely learnt a few things here. Crime is the symptom of the illness in our society, not the illness itself.
    I don't agree with state sanctioned murder. Its still murder regardless of the supposed moral high ground.
    Rehabilitation or death are not deterrents. Only when we rid society of the conditions and stimuli that cause people to commit crime will we be free from it. For a lot of criminals crimes are philosophical, existential questions tested on a physical level. Those four walls might mean the end of their freedom but the absoluteness incarceration brings provides the inmate an absolute freedom from their former selves.
    On different levels, this is what a lot of people in society are looking for.

24. that evil monster, how can the father say that, can you think how emotional this must have been for James! He should have asked for his forgiveness, not say "i hate what he has done".

25. The father was a monster! She said 'beat like a dog' , nobody is supposed to abuse a child NOR an animal! And how is it that he went to school and no teacher called in social services

26. John Malkovich is on death row?

27. I could feel little sad for Douglas Feldman but this man, nothing at all…

28. Danke an den großartigen Werner Herzog ! Sehr informativ!

29. One of the disturbing episodes !

30. This is the only time Hertzog has said "I don`t have to like you" I don`t think he likes James Barnes….

31. What a waste of a potentially good life. He is very intelligent and articulate. With a different upbringing and supportive guidance, his life could have easily turned out completely different. Parents like what he had have so much to answer for !

32. Just saw the iceman tapes so this is nothing

33. Is he dead yet?

34. Is the narrator here the same narrator on The Boondocks S1 Ep1?? He makes me wanna listen to him all day. 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🛰

35. Why he converted to Islam?
