Product Information

For all the latest Netflix news, drops, quizzes and memes like The Holy Church of Netflix on Facebook. As a teen there were all these stories I remember about him being this ravenous cannibal who wanted to make sex slave zombies.

A world-renowned investigative criminologist, he has gained the trust of murderers across the world, entered their high security prisons, and discussed in detail their shocking crimes. It’s also mentioned that Lionel Dahmer planned on writing a book – something which did in fact happen in real life. According to him, you were cut out to be one if you have the following traits: large jaws, forward projection of jaw, low sloping forehead, high cheekbones, flattened or upturned nose, handle-shaped ears, hawk-like noses or fleshy lips, hard shifty eyes, scanty beard or baldness, insensitivity to pain, and long arms relative to lower limbs. I commend the author, who was one of the first reporters at the initial discover at Jeffrey Dahmer's apartment, for her tact in reporting as much detail as she did, while also doing it in a way that does not glorify the acts. Dahmer was a monster for sure and this was the first time that I got to fully read his court statement.Dahmer possessed above average intellect, was conventionally good looking, and usually had a calm demeanor that could disarm even the most paranoid of people. I lived in in Wisconsin for about eight years, and to this day, the Ledgend of Dahmer still rings through that state to this very day.

Or, more ominously, as a hermetic figure walled behind blank glasses, offering no window into what lies inside.My Friend Dahmer is a 2012 graphic novel and memoir by artist John "Derf" Backderf about his teenage friendship with Jeffrey Dahmer, who later became a serial killer.

Lionel Dahmer graduated from University of Wisconsin in 1959, in 1962 he finished Marquette University, receiving Master of Science.A Father's Story is clearly Lionel Dahmer's attempt to understand his son's evolution into one of the world's most renowned serial killers with particular emphasis on his personal role. His name became immortal when I found out that American novelist Joyce Carol Oates wrote Zombie based on him. It is the kind of subtle detail that Murphy loves to play with, given his reputation as a schlockmeister. Yet rather than digging deeper and confronting his son’s issues where it was, growing blacker every day, Lionel admittedly continued the pattern of fatherhood he’d established long before and shirked his responsibilities. Not to say that those elements weren't an interesting perspective to read, I just expected more details of his crime and a deeper dive into his mind (in comparison to other true crime novels).
