The Death of Dottie Love (1990)
The Radar read
A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.
Synopsis
Based on the true stories of 3 people who where murdered in Bangor, Maine in the 1980's. Charlie Howard (who was also the inspiration for Stephen King's book "IT".) a gay man who was beaten and thrown off a bridge, Sherri, who was stabbed to death by her boyfriend, and Dottie Love a prostitute who arrived in Bangor and disappeared under mysterious circumstances.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
