READ TIME: 1 MIN.
Last week, Ryan Murphy's new show "Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story," was released on Netflix. Starring Murphy mainstay Evan Peters as the gay serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, the 10-part limited series also features Richard Jenkins, Molly Ringwald and Niecy Nash.
The series follows the life of Dahmer, from childhood through his 17 grisly murders of men and boys, with some episodes being told from his victims' point of view. Nevertheless, the show is drawing plenty of online criticism and even backlash from the victims' families, with some speaking out in the media about the show.
