Director Sarik Andreasyan began filming the series “Chikatilo. Appearance of the Beast “for the Okko video service. Reported by TASS with reference to the press service of the online cinema. For the filmmaker, this will be the first experience of creating a big series.

“We set ourselves ambitious artistic goals. This is a terrible story, and we will try to convey it as honestly as possible, ”said the director.

The leading actor is not reported, but previously a TV star Dmitry Nagiyev sharedthat he agreed to the filmmakers to play Chikatilo. Considering that the actor recently worked with Andreasyan on the TV series “Nagiyev in Quarantine”, it is easy to guess that men are talking about the same project.

We will remind, the maniac Andrey Chikatilo is considered the most terrible serial killer in the history of the USSR. From 1978 to 1990, he committed more than 50 murders in southern Russia. The criminal was searched for for many years, even detained once, and then released. It is a known fact that in one of the operations he was looking for himself as a volunteer. In 1994, the maniac was executed in Novocherkassk. Films about Chikatilo were shot several times: documentary and fiction. And not only Russian, but also Western filmmakers were interested in the killer.
