Entertaining and some what factually correct. Watching the ploys they used against each other in trying to become standard for the nation. The first Execution by the electric chair was not shown for which I am grateful. Eye witness accounts saw a human being incinerated and they had to apply the voltage three times to kill the prisoner and still had to resort to a more primitive method to make sure he was deceased.
The movie glossed over or omitted certain actions by both parties. The dead cats laid out around one lab and the public electrocution of an elephant.
We would go watch again.
 

The “problem” isn’t boiling out the eyeballs of the convict. It’s the price paid by those doing the work.

Hanging, publicly, is a far more satisfying end for all involved.

The first tread on the staircase down to Hell . . .
