Dahmer-Monster The Jeffrey Dahmer Story Netflix 2022

A nearly 10 hour mini series about the tragic miserable life of Jeffrey Dahmer who murdered 17 young men and who almost got away with it thanks to the incompetent racist and homophobic Milwaukee police force. This is the latest heaping from Ryan Murphy and its well done with spot on direction by several people including Jennifer Lynch (yes she’s the daughter of David) Carl Franklin and Gregg Araki. At times its hard to watch, its pretty explicit and grim in telling this American tale of horror. It goes back and forth in telling his story from his youth to his years as a killing machine and I have to say right here and now it is definitely not for everyone. The cast is strong. Evan Peters plays Dahmer and is supported by Richard Jenkins as his pathetic father, a surprising Molly Ringwald as Jenkins second wife, Niecy Nash as Dahmer’s concerned and troubled neighbor and Michael Learned as his trusting grandmother. All good and watchable. This is the kind of mini series that does well in the ratings and look for it next year to reap many Emmy nominations and probably some wins. It’s a sad and shocking story that I really don't know what to do with. Should I put it in a box tie it up with ribbon and throw it into the deep blue sea?
