Topic Picks Up Crime Doc Series The Box

All3Media International has licensed the exclusive U.S. and Canada streaming rights for the documentary crime series The Box to Topic.

Top Hat Productions’ three-part series follows Police Detective Chris Loudon’s mission to expose the truth behind one of America’s worst serial killers.

Loudon unravels a murder mystery created by a monster hiding in plain sight in small-town America, where women’s reports of sexual assault were all too frequently dismissed throughout the 1970s.

The series is slated to premiere on Topic this summer.

“Topic subscribers know that true crime stories are often more unbelievable than anything that is scripted,” said Jennifer Liang, VP of programming strategy, acquisitions and sales at Topic. “The Box is a harrowing account of how one of this country’s most dangerous serial killers lived out in the open for years. This series fits perfectly into our collection of fascinating, can’t-stop-watching true-crime stories.”

Jennifer Askin, senior VP for North America at All3Media International, commented, “We are thrilled to have Topic on board as the North American partner for The Box. This captivatingly told, forensically researched true crime series from Top Hat Productions reveals the truth behind one of America’s worst serial killers, offering utterly compelling viewing for Topic’s audiences.”
