A24 making a To Catch a Predator movie with Robert Pattinson as Chris Hansen had me seated before the trailer even finished loading. What I got was weirder, darker, and more haunting than I bargained for.

I’m the exact target audience for this show and I still walked away frustrated. The storytelling structure is the best this franchise has produced, but Ryan Murphy took one of America's most famous unsolved mysteries and fictionalized it beyond recognition. Beautiful, bloody, and about 40% made up.

The Ed Gein Story isn’t easy to watch, but it’s hard to look away. Netflix turns one of America’s darkest true crimes into a chilling, atmospheric series that’s as unsettling as it is masterfully made.
