Into the Abyss plot
"A gaze into the abyss of the human soul."
Herzog focuses in this documentary on a triple murder committed ten years ago in Conroe, Texas. The next of kin, but also the convicts, including the man on death row, speak eight days before his execution. The apparent motive for the murders was to steal a car for joyriding. The convicted killers are two teenagers, Michael Perry and Jason Burkett, who have histories of substance abuse and assault. They deny their own part and blame each other. Herzog delves into the legacy of this crime and the psyche of the people involved.
