I know when I was studying I met a patient who had OCD. She thought she was filthy and her children where too and day dreamed about murdering them so they weren't filthy anymore. She thankfully successfully completed treatment - she was in the hospital ( private ) for 9 months.

was she disgusted by her thoughts? I have ocd and I am absolutely horrified at the thoughts I get sometimes
 
Evan was outstanding! I watched a home movie clip of Dahmer and he had his very laugh to perfection.
I found the show to be slow and dragged out, it was still good but too many episodes.

It didn't bother me watching, I think because it was more about the victims and their perspective so no glorifying or seeing anything to bad, most was up to your own imagination.
I love how it shone a light on racism, homophobia, how poor the area was to survive in.

The 1st episode had me sweating! I'm sure we have all went back to a place we maybe shouldn't have and have been lucky nothing happened.
The cops sickened me.
The blood part 🤢
I felt for the young boy and hard to believe that actually happened, I heard the 911 call and them saying he was OK and everything was in hand, just heartbreaking for his family, the reality was the cops didn't care.
Tony 💔
The fan club when he was in prison! That made me so mad.
The clown scene that scared the 💩 out of me more than Dahmer.
The calmness of Dahmer in his interviews is 😳
I don't think he was insane but there was something not right with him mentally, couple that with his fascination with all things dead, I don't have an ounce of sympathy for him and his upbringing but something was definitely missed and I believe he tried to tell his dad.

The smell from that building, how did the neighbours stick that? I know no-one cared about them, it was cheap rent and as long as the landlords got their $$ but I'd have kicked the door in when he left! I have unfortunately smelt death and its the most sickening smell, stayed up my nose for days!
The court room scene 👏 I'd have done the same.
Anyone think the inmate that killed Dahmer was set up? I've seen a couple of things including his son speaking and he said too his dad was set up by being left unsupervised and being riled up prior by having learnt of his crimes, especially to the black community. It does beg the question why was he left alone?
It was an interesting watch but the night stalker had me on edge for weeks in comparison.

Just been reading about the inaccuracies in the film, one of them being that she didn’t actually LIVE in the block!

I have read since it was released, because its NOT a documentary it's been embellished, like many things have, one example was the titanic movie, it happened, the boat sank but Jack and Rose were added for entertainment, she didn't really let him go or have the hope diamond in her coat. While Glenda was a real person and did know Dahmer they embellished parts, the sandwich, that she didn't live next door.

I think because the execution and baptism were the same day they sort of gelled together well but I also assume it’s a kind of advert for a Gacy drama Netflix will make.

I dont think I could watch it if they do! It literally is the whole outfit, not many people like clowns at the best of times but 😳 I will say I have never looked into his crimes, too scary.
 
In American do they not have separate wings in prison like they do in the uk? Like people like Dahmer would be on and protected? If not how were not more monsters killed?

Have to say, it did bug me that is showed John Wayne Gacy killing one of his victims while dressed as Pogo the clown - he never did that.

That was weird. It made me wonder if they were going to do a show on him next though

He was in solitary confinement for a year I think then got put in with the rest of them
 
Def wouldn’t be surprised if Gacy is the next project. I think I’m just a bit of a wimp but I find a lot of Ryan Murphys stuff in poor taste, he seems to love themes and graphic depictions of sexual violence/exploitation which have made me turn off various episodes/series of American horror story etc. I actually really liked his other shows Pose and even Glee but his darker stuff is so creepy and kinda gratuitous. I feel like I don’t ever need to see another Ryan Murphy depiction of a violent killer especially in a silly clown costume (which is not accurate to JWG’s modus operandi) targeting pretty young men and women especially when it’s about real crimes and real victims.

!!!!!!! This. I loved AHS. Stopped watching after ep 1 of hotel 🤢 I've always thought Ryan was a creep.

Also, pose is the best. Love MJ and Billy. Saw the guy who played Ricky was in Dahmer

Omg yes same with Hotel!! I didn’t get it at all (season 1 I enjoyed though some of the stuff like gif suit dude was a bit questionable). I’ve tried since including the AHS short stories and yeah, it’s the creepiness of his “subversive” stuff. He should stick to the more wholesome as he is actually great at creating historical eras - Pose, ACS etc. Pose was just wonderful, one of my fave series in recent years. Loved bianca and the gang… I haven’t seen Ricky in dahmer yet and I’m gonna keep a lookout now!

*gif suit that should say!!

*Ok it keeps correcting the word I wanna say 😂 but it begins with g and ends with imp!
