For those of you who do not have a tv or misuse yours by not watching Lifetime all day on Saturday and Sunday, I must call your attention to a real treat. Namely, Drew Peterson: Untouchable. The movie outlines the story of Drew Peterson, a Chicago area cop, who killed his third and fourth wife. His third wife “drowned” in a bathtub. Despite the fact that the tub was empty when her body was found, the coroner initially ruled her death an accident. However, Drew Peterson is currently awaiting trial for her murder, because duh. His fourth wife disappeared just a few years after the third wife died and is still missing, but no one believes she is alive.
What makes this case so interesting is Drew Peterson. He is a fucking loon. His behavior became more and more erratic the more media attention the case got. He hit on a reporter that was camped out in his yard. He calls himself, or sometimes just his weiner, “big daddy.” He wanted a radio station to set up a contest to date him after the fourth wife went missing. He just acted like a ridiculous freak. Peterson is played brilliantly by Rob Lowe. I mean brilliantly. Lowe has perfected the creepiness the real guy exudes. He mainly does so with the mustache. Peterson has a gigantic glorious mustache. It is gray, bushy and fabulous. Lowe OWNS this mustache.
Because we were so excited to watch this groundbreaking film, Lisa and I decided to make a night of it. I even made her a shirt: It is my first funny t-shirt with moving parts!
Honey boo boo child, the movie did not disappoint. It was amazing. When I saw it was made by the same people who brought us The Craigslist Killer, Justice for Natalee Holloway and Sundays at Tiffany’s, I knew why. Those people are geniuses.
