CGiii Comment
There is so much wrong with this film...
Three people describe their involvement with Dahmer...the crack addicted neighbour, the drunken (ludicrously mustached) detective and the morosely macabre pathologist...
The detective likes to describe some people as pricks - him being one himself, he has now become a pseudo-academic with a PhD - and, with the self-serving stream of drivel he constantly spouts, no-one could possibly take this idiot seriously.
The Crack-head...everything she says is redundant...possibly because of the drugs.
The pathologist...neither the brightest nor the most intelligent man on the planet...
What was the point of this film??? A question that will remained forever unanswered.
Drivel.

In 1991 Jeffrey Dahmer was arrested in Milwaukee and sentenced to 957 years in prison for killing 17 people and dismembering their bodies. This film explores the city of Milwaukee by meeting those surrounding Dahmer during and after his hidden spree. Recollections from Milwaukee Medical Examiner Jeffrey Jentzen, Police Detective Patrick Kennedy, and neighbor Pamela Bass are interwoven with archival footage and everyday scenes from Dahmer's life, working collectively to disassemble the facade of an ordinary man leading an ordinary existence.
