Two key differences between Netflix's Aileen Wuornos doc and true crime film inspired by her crimes
Queen of the Serial Killers debuts on Netflix, true crime enthusiasts have picked apart everything that was accurately portrayed in the movie that was not in Monster (2003)
A new true-crime documentary has shot straight to the top of the Netflix charts. While that’s hardly unusual, ( thrillers and true-crime stories always seem to dominate), this one is sparking a reaction you might not expect just from the title and synopsis. It’s called Aileen: Queen of the Serial Killers.
Netflix offers some of the most terrifying looks into true crime and the people who hurt others without hesitation.
The Ed Gein Story, the series' biggest sin is turning Ed Gein ( Charlie Hunnam ), a ruthless serial killer who didn't see people as human beings, into a quiet, unassuming small-town boy lacking the smarts to know any better.
That surreal entry into Marine life became the first chapter of The Pink Marine, White's memoir about coming of age—and coming out—while serving in the Reagan-era Marines. That memoir now forms the basis for Boots, an eight-episode limited series premiering Oct. 9 on Netflix, starring Miles Heizer, Liam Oh, Max Parker, Ana Ayora, and Vera Farmiga.
Netflix has done it again! The streaming king has launched yet another new hit series that’s breaking through and trending in a big way. Not only that, but this series carries the double-punch appeal of being a dramatic thriller (perfect for Halloween season) that also happens to be based on a true story (perfect for masses of true-crime lovers).
There’s almost too much to watch this weekend, there are just so many great titles arriving to streaming on every platform. On Netflix, we’re excited for the latest season of Ryan Murphy’s Monster series, this time about serial killer Ed Gein.
