I am really into films about real-life serial killers. I have watched The Hillside Strangler, Gacy and one about Ted Bundy, can anyone recommend any others?

Ed Gein - the inspiration for the film and book Psycho ,Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs and the film American Psycho.
It`s funny how many offer the Hannibal Lector series when you asked for REAL LIFE serial-killers LOL

Summer of Sam is good, although a little strange. One that isn't actually about serial killers, but about one multiple murder is "In Cold Blood". It's based on a true story, written by Truman Capote and starring Robert Blake as a very strange character.

How about Silence of the Lambs? Its no true story, but Buffalo Bill was based off a real serial killer.

Citizen X - An HBO movie about a Russian serial killer and he's believed to be the worst in the world - it's very good.

From Hell. Its about Jack the Ripper, but if you watch it make sure you really concentrate on it otherwise youll get confused. I had to watch it twice before it made proper sense. Theres Monster about Aileen Wuornos. I think she was the first woman in America to face the death penalty. To be honest it didnt really scare me. More than anything I ended up feeling sorry for her
