Using re-enactments, archival footage and photos, and interviews with family, friends, neighbors, crime experts and law enforcement, EVIL UP CLOSE examines the lives of Britain's most notorious modern-day criminals, including: Levi Bellfield, a part-time pimp and a nightclub bouncer, who murdered British schoolgirl Milly Dowler -- but she wasn't his last victim; Derrick 'Birdy' Bird, a self-employed taxi driver in the North of England, who shot his twin brother David and his family's solicitor, before continuing a shooting spree that hit 24 people, and killed 12, and many more.
