Almost four years ago, Dr. Kermit Gosnell was sentenced to life in prison. The owner of an abortion center in Pennsylvania, Gosnell was found guilty of murdering three babies and of involuntary manslaughter in the death of a woman who died at his center.

It was a story all but ignored by the mainstream press until USA TODAY’s Kirsten Powers wrote about it in her column. Suddenly, the “House of Horrors” wasn’t a local story, as claimed by then-Washington Post blogger Sarah Kliff. It became a national outrage.

Now, pro-life filmmaker couple Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney are making sure the American people don’t forget about what the abortion industry claims was an outlier that could have been fixed by wider access to abortion. In addition  to their book “Gosnell: The Untold Story of America’s Most Prolific Serial Killer,” which was published in January, they are finishing a crime drama called “Gosnell: America’s Biggest Serial Killer” that will star 1990s “Superman” star Dean Cain and is directed by actor and director Nick Searcy.

McAleer told The Stream that he and his wife chose to do a crime drama over a documentary because they “are journalists and it was a great story. We wanted to tell a truth that had not been told.”

While the conviction is old news in a 24-hour news cycle, McAleer says the public should care about Gosnell’s murders because the abortionist “was allowed to get away with this carnage for 30 years,” even though “Philadelphia is a highly-regulated city in a highly-regulated state.” McAleer said the title reflects how “[Gosnell’s] staff said he killed several babies a day – he was doing abortions for over 30 years. Detectives believe he killed hundreds, perhaps thousands, of babies over a 30-year period.”

McAleear explained that “now more than ever, with the recent election, abortion is a national issue,” and thus the upcoming film is well-timed for the public. Responding to a question about the abortion industry’s claims that Gosnell was an outlier who could have been stopped by more widely legalized abortion, McAleer noted, “Pennsylvania is an abortion-friendly state. This is not about abortion restrictions.”
