Netflix has removed the LGBTQ+ tag from the true crime limited series Dahmer - Monster: The JeffreyDahmer Story starring Evan Peters amid viewer complaints.
Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story was originally categorized under the LGBT+ tag on Netflix, a label which the streamer has now removed. Centered on real-life serial killer Jeffery Dahmer, who murdered and sexually assaulted 17 young men and boys between 1987-1991, the series is the latest true crime fascination for fans of the genre. Helmed by American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy and starring AHS alumnus/horror vet Evan Peters, Dahmer premiered on Netflix on September 21.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Though Murphy's dramatization of the killer's life sought to differentiate itself from other titles in the true crime genre by paying special attention to Dahmer's victims and avoiding the glorification of the killer, those victims' families have already spoken out about being re-traumatized due to the Netflix drama.
Backlash To Dahmer Hasn't Slowed The Series' Roll Despite mixed critic reviews and a sizable dose of controversy, Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story has become Netflix's biggest premiere since Stranger Things season 4. Currently the number 1 television series on Netflix, Monster has showed no signs of slowing down in terms of popularity, with online word-of-mouth chiefly ensuring the show's continued spread.
True crime media has blossomed in popularity due to the accessibility and binging model of streaming services, which Netflix has spearheaded. Though the genre exists on a precarious line between informative and exploitative, the difference between a respectful project and a cash grab often boils down to impact, necessity, and perspective.
