If you’re mentioning awards for acting, the guy who played the Dad was also incredible.
-
The Tony Hughes episode was so powerful I forgot what show I was watching. When Tony sees Dahmer from across the club, my heart sank. They did a phenomenal job.
-
I absolutely love how Jeremy states you don’t need gore to make this a horror series. I completely agree they mastered that for us as an audience.
-
The thing that I think stands out most about this mini series is that before it, we all knew who Jeffrey Dahmer was, but afterwards you remember names such as Tony Hughes, Ron Flowers, Steven Hicks, etc. just as much as you’d remember Dahmers. The victims are usually over shadowed, and I’m happy to say that this time wasn’t the same.
-
I also think Richard Jenkins should be considered for an award. He did a phenomenal job playing the father.
-
Evan Peters always takes my breath away. I binged the show last night... evan is phenomenal. his performance is just so haunting!!!!
-
What episode 6 showed me is that that Dahmer shattered the hopes and dreams of 17 people and 17 families. And in my opinion that single episode truly defined Dahmer for the monster that he truly was.
-
Watched the entire show in one sitting through midnight. Tony Hughes was definitely one of the most tragic. He was so full of hope and you could see in his eyes the euphoria in having finally found a good friend in Jeffrey. Rest In Peace Tony
-
I found the side of the story of his dad living with guilt if he created the monster really heartbreaking especially when he never gave up on him and tried to understand him.
-
Evan Peters and Niecy Nash absolutely crushed their roles. The dad was also great. Some of the best acting I’ve ever seen.
-
Episode 6 made me cry. He was trying to be great and his mama crying thinking of her last conversation with him just took it out of me.
-
I don’t see it mentioned often. But the guy that killed him was a great actor too. His monologue at the end gave me chills.
-
The Tony Hughes episode was definitely a highlight for me. I thought to myself as I was watching it, “If I was just watching this episode in isolation and had no idea of the wider context, this would be such a charming story.” It made me desperately hope this was someone else who got away from Dahmer which made his demise all the more tragic when it finally happened.
-
What's insane is that they never actually showed one murder....it was pure atmosphere. What a show, and to focus on the victims, the family and the wider social issues was perfect. 10/10
-
Crazy how well the show was even able to adapt John Wayne Gacys story momentarily to Jeffrey's story and it didn't feel like too much. It was done perfectly.
-
Konerak and Tony's deaths broke me. I spent hours googling all the victims and here I am on YouTube still watching videos. I put myself in the shoes of the victims and the family, how horrifying it feels to know that your life is ending without you seeing your loved ones or seeing someone you love then never seeing them alive again! May their souls continue resting in peace.
-
I also liked how it showed the devastation of Jeff's father... of him finding out about his son. You don't usually think of the heartbreak of the family. Usually we only think of the victims family.
-
I appreciate that this is giving humanity to the victims, something MOST of these movies/series fail to do
-
Evan Peters will pick up an Oscar for this performance, this show is one of the most sickening and scary I've ever watched on Netflix. And what makes if worse is all these sick killings actually happened. And worse still is the numpty Police who had multiple opportunities to get this psycho killer very early on. But sadly the Police don't care about gay, black minority groups. In a way these are crimes as bad as what Dahmer did.
-
The acting on the show was one of the best acting I've seen in a show this sensitive in a very long time, the casting directors did a phenomenal job
