Fresh Meat: Jeffrey Dahmer (2021 TV Movie)
2/10
An Honest Review
22 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Honestly, I wish I could rate this more than I have here. Currently on a Jeffrey Dahmer kick due to the new Netflix series that just came out. The information that's available on this man is bountiful. From transcripts of his interviews and interrogations to photos of his slayings and live interviews to actual witness testimony, there is just no reason whatsoever that this documentary should have gotten wrong what it got wrong. Jeffrey Dahmer had clearly killed more than 3 people by the time he moved out of his grandmother's apartment. He did not kill his first younger victim, he escaped and went to the police (at his grandmother's house, not his apartment). This was Konerak Sinthasomphone's brother. And Mr. Flowers did escape because of his grandmother and go to the police but they did not believe him. Even when they got that information wrong, they forgot about one of the biggest and honestly most heartbreaking parts of the story. Dahmer had lobotomized his second young victim (Konerak) using a drill and muratic acid. Konerak then escaped while Dahmer was away and was found by his neighbors who called the police. The police then returned Konerak in his clearly wounded and disoriented state to Dahmer where he proceeded to kill him. This documentary emphasizes more of Dahmer's cunning than they should when really, much of the reason he got away with what he did was due to the stigmatized gay and black community.

In conclusion, you're better off watching the confession tapes than this inaccurate garbage.
