With the ten-part miniseries "Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story" (or "Dahmer" for short) Netflix draws a line under the glorification of dangerous psychopaths.

Instead, the focus is on the perspectives of the victims and the systematic injustices.

A few years ago, with the Versace season of his anthology series "American Crime Story", Ryan Murphy himself took part in the transfiguration of notorious murderers, which unfortunately is commonplace in Hollywood.

At Netflix, where the super-producer most recently hosted his own productions Ratched and Halston, he's now making some amends by setting the true-crime genre on a new course.

In the ten-part miniseries "Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story" (aka "Dahmer") it is less about the feelings of the killer and more about the anger of the victims.

In addition, social injustices are addressed that make such crimes possible in the first place.

Evan Peters ("WandaVision," "Mare of Easttown") stars as the unfortunate iconic killer Jeffrey Dahmer, who killed, dismembered and partially ate at least 17 men and boys in Milwaukee between 1978 and 1991.
