It is a recurring meme on the internet: the one of the person who, after a hard day of hustle and bustle, sits in front of the television to relax with a glass of wine, a lavender candle… and a terrifying documentary of true crimepreferably in a serial killer. the platforms of transmissionwith Netflix in the lead, he did the most graphic and inhumane crimes ever seen in conventional — almost taking the place of romantic comedies in that commando purgatory, after the kids in bed and the dishes in the dishwasher, which is the “what do you want to see today, ‘mor?” “Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” transforms one of those documentaries, which shares the Netflix seal with the series, into a work of fiction absolutely attached to real events. The result? Ten one-hour episodes that well deserve their “Over 18” tag reserved for hard-hitting content.
Jeffrey Dahmer was a serial killer Milwaukee, who brutally murdered 17 men and boys between 1978 and 1991, repeatedly resorting to rape, necrophilia and cannibalism. And if the documentary version leaves us with stories and loose images, the series created by Ryan Murphy (just like “Glee”, “American Crime Story” or “American Horror Story”, which here meets with the screenwriter of the feature film Ian Brennan) will beyond the way her belly turns (I don’t recommend seeing her having dinner, with a plate of lasagna on her lap), since she recreates situations that until then were only lived in descriptions. The moments with the victims are tense, long (practically in real time), dirty and there is no excuse to shock. It’s a job well done, effectively written and superbly acted, but it’s causing a stir as many viewers can’t get past the first episode. This scribe of yours, who had to attend at 10 in the morning in record time to complete this text, hopes that her editor is ready to disburse the amount corresponding to the therapy. Or at least some medication for insomnia.
