You don’t really get into his predicament
Line of Events
An anthology series about high-profile crimes or killers that captured the public’s attention and notoriety. Evan Peters [Jeffrey Dahmer] says they had a rule, from Ryan Murphy [creator] for the series: that it would never be told from Dahmer’s point of view. “As an audience, you don’t really sympathize with him.
Featured in Jeremy Vine: Episode #5195 (2022)
You kind of look at him from the outside.” In many episodes, a 3M Command(TM) comic book is shown in the kitchen of Jeffrey Dahmer’s apartment, this is set in 1991 at the latest. 3M released its first wave of Command(TM) products in 1996. Evan Peters has seriously outdone himself here.
Also, the cinematography and music were impressive
His acting was top notch and his portrayal of Dahmer, from his clothes to his expressions, everything was perfect, perfect in every single detail. And besides him, the performances of the other cast members (his father, mother, grandmother, Glenda Cleveland and the victims) were also excellent. The writing and storyline were also decent, especially the fact that they didn’t take many creative liberties, which made the story feel close to the real events.
But overall, it’s a must-watch
The only thing I found slightly disappointing was the length. The pacing was a bit slow, especially in the last few episodes, and I feel like the series could have easily been wrapped up in 8 episodes, instead of 10. Especially for those interested in the crime thriller genre.
And that’s what makes it a little bit unique and interesting to watch
It’s a realistic take on one of the most notorious serial killers in our history, where they didn’t romanticize it and actually exposed those who tend to do it.
