In what might be the weirdest film on this list, filmmakers Joshua Zeman and Barbara Brancaccio attempt to see if a popular urban legend in Staten Island has ties to a real-life serial killer named Andre Rand. The imaginary boogeyman, known as Cropsey, supposedly snatches children off the street and murders them in abandoned houses in the area. Rand is thought to be responsible for murdering five kids in a similar manner, although only two of the allegations stuck. Cropsey is well-done and creepy, and it was awarded Tribeca's Grand Jury Prize in 2009.
Watch Cropsey on Netflix.
