If you haven't had a chance to watch Evil Genius, the four-part Netflix documentary that's been creating quite a storm in the binge-watching world, then you'd better get a move on and catch up because a sequel might be on the way.

Directors Barbara Schroeder and Trey Borzillier have said they want to delve deeper into the case, after so many questions in the truly bizarre series of events were left unanswered.

"We would love to do another deep dive into the characters here, to reveal new information," Schroeder told the Wrap.

Haven't seen it? Then let us give you a quick low-down on what you're missing out on. No spoilers, we promise.

The mystery begins in August 2003, when a pizza delivery bloke called Brian Wells walks into a bank with a shotgun and what soon transpires to be a homemade collar bomb clamped around his neck - we're not making this up, kids.

He waltzes out with a big wad of cash, but the next thing we see is Wells cuffed and sitting on the floor, pleading with the police.

Wells says he's being forced to do this and begs the authorities to find a way to release the collar bomb that's ticking away under his nose.

Of course, the cops are suspicious, but in their hesitance to assist an armed bank robber, the bomb goes off and poor Wells meets his cruel demise - and we see the whole bloody thing. But soon after the explosion, the police discover a collection of cleverly written instructions near to the scene and so the hunt to find the evil genius behind this crime ensues.

From then on, you'll be hooked as you try to understand the strange relationship between Marjorie Diehl-Armstrong and her ex-fiancé Bill Rothstein as a series of shocking twists and turns are revealed through the four hour-long episodes.

With so many questions prompted throughout the whodunnit docuseries, news of a possible sequel is like music to our ears. One Twitter user has said, "After finishing the docuseries and spending far too long on Google searching the Pizza Bomber case, I'm all for this."

We can't say much else because we don't want to ruin it, but we suggest you log on to your Netflix right away.
