The #2 Movie on Netflix Is a Thrilling Documentary About a Charismatic Serial Killer - PureWow

Talk about creepy•Published Oct 5, 2026NetflixThomas Randolph was, by all accounts, charming and charismatic. But, he had a checkered past. Known as the "Black Widower," Randolph had a string of failed marriages, several of which had ended in his wives' deaths. When he called 911 reporting that his sixth wife, Sharon, had been shot, it seemed like a simple home invasion. But as Dateline producer Dan Slepian began digging into the case, all was not as it seemed. Now, Netflix's documentary, The Widower: 'Til Death Do Us Part, which investigates the full story, is the streamer's number two movie on the platform. The trailer starts with a 911 call; Randolph is reporting that his wife has been shot in the head. He went on to claim that he then shot the intruder, who was allegedly making a getaway with a bag of jewelry. After being tipped off by a friend and colleague, Slepian, who had previously followed the Las Vegas police department's homicide division, started digging. What he unraveled left more questions than answers. "That's an insane person. That's a psychotic person," the voiceover narrates.
