You can see that Evan is incredibly passionate about acting and he portrays his roles incredibly well but unfortunately he’s been type cast, he’s mostly stuck in darker genres (horror, thriller, crime drama type genres) you can see in the occasional chances he escapes that world he has great enjoyment doing lighter roles. I just wanna see even in like some sitcom or something, he’d be so good at it!

Sometimes, it's easy to excuse the actions of a cold blooded killer if they're portrayed by a charismatic, conventionally handsome actor. Penn Badgley apparently resented his character Joe on "You" after a while, pointing out that if Joe wasn't so charming, nobody would be condoning his actions.

I think this is a special case because Jeffrey Dahmer *was* in fact very conventionally attractive. That kind of bias and privilege (“pretty privilege”) was actually very influential on his ability to manipulate authority figures for so long and attract the people that he wanted, despite his strange behavior. Even his own lawyers and psychiatrists would describe his looks in their interviews and books without being asked about it. 🤦♀️ So yeah. His physical beauty mattered quite a bit to people. They thought he was unique because, in their mind, you have to look bad/crazy in order to do bad/crazy things. I think that kinda bias in our society could only be pointed out and criticized if the actor looked like Jeffrey Dahmer.

Just wanted to point out that unfortunately, shows like dateline, 48 hrs, 60 minutes etc have been criticized by various families throughout the cases they’ve covered in the past, to sensationalize/tweak aspects of their story- whether it be the editing, omitting key details and context, the questions asked, etc to bring in views and ratings. My telltale sign that someone is being exploitative is the use of sensationalist language, inserting themselves into the narrative of the case in order to flesh out the ‘story’, the lack of emphasis on the victims and how their lives were affected, etc. If the video reads like a storytime KZitem video circa 2017-18, or like a gossip magazine at the grocery store checkout, it’s immediately a red flag 🚩

I feel people forget how genuinely funny Evan Peters is, his casting as quick silver, being in the office, kick ass and Phil of the future show how capable he is as an actor because it is truly hard to play both comedic and dramatic/horror roles as well as he does. So many dramatic actors try to play funny roles and it falls flat and vice versa, but Evan Peters does both seamlessly. And yet he is being fetishized as this horror trope character and being type casted for that role. I wish Hollywood would see how much he is capable of and diversify his role especially because he has said he stopped doing a lot of work for a period of time because he couldn’t handle taking on another dark and twisted character because it caused a lot of mental health problems for him. Playing those characters over and over again without a break can lead to a lot of stress, people have to take breaks from crime and horror movies/shows all the time and watch something more light, imagine taking that home with you and it being your full time job. Then you see Evan’s interviews and see how awkward, sweet and funny he really is. He is completely separate from his characters and yet people forget that is the grossest way, dehumanizing and fetishizing his physical being and the terrible characters he portrays onscreen. He is a person and his characters are not him. He is handsome but his physical appearance doesn’t excuse his characters behaviour and antics, and people need to realize how dangerous this mindset really is

IMO, Ryan Murphy is the problem and deserving of criticism. Blaming actors for taking work is just silly in an industry so competitive. They never have control over the final product so I’m not sure I believe he’s really being dragged. I know Dahmer is, for good reasons, but I’ve seen only praise for Evan Peters. I think this is just the beginning of a long career for him. He just needs to understand he can now survive without Ryan Murphy. (Sorry for the rant- not trying to disagree!

Working with college students for years, it is deeply concerning every time one of these serials comes out. Bundy now Dahmer - “He’s actually really charming” “He was kind of cute” because of the actor and missing that these are portrayals of real people who did real atrocities. I don’t know how to “fix” this reaction and educators can do some follow up conversations but it’s clear that the message is skewed by a portion of the younger audience. It’s a tenuous tug-of-war between entertainment and information and I hope the blame is not pinned on the actors.

Keep in mind what happened to Heath Ledger. Portraying such a dark and morbid character pushed him over the edge. Becoming that character forces whoever is playing them to be in a dark place, and stay there for a long period of time. While i cant 100% say this is what happened to Heath Ledger, nor can i definitively say this is where Evan Peters is headed. As someone who has watched Dahmer, i was extremely uncomfortable. That halloween, many kids from my school dressed up as Dahmer. I feel like the series itself is problematic. I felt like it was leaning into feeling bad for Dahmer, and what added to that was how he was played by Evan Peters. I had to atop watching it multiple times because I was so uncomfortable watching and sinking to that dark place. I can only imagine how Evan felt becoming Dahmer in the months of filming the series. Im glad Evan decided to take a mental health break. ive been to that dark place and it’s terrifying. While AHS is one of my favorite shows, and as much as id be sad to see him leave again, I hope he can leave the series all together and find a role much more suited for his goofy personality.

I feel like people kind of forgetting Evan peters is a 30+ year old man and he knows what he is doing,no one is forcing him to play those roles, the recent "poor Evan playing all those hard roles" is naive. he went in there willingly,he could have said no and should have said no to that Dahmer show,it's not like he is starving on the street,he is rich. I love him i really do i loved him since I was like 14 but come on guys he is building a bank on thirsty girls like us .

I get where your coming from but I don’t think he’s doing it on purpose. He probably chose to do the Dahmer project because the story in itself is interesting and there are things that definitely need to be addressed that still happen to this day. I don’t think we wants to do these types of roles because he knows he’ll get little fan girlies. I also doubt he got casted because he’s hot, he’s a great actor and he’s good at playing these types of roles.

I dont know when audiences started getting so wrapped up in the moral quandaries of dramatised accounts of real life events. I think the Dahmer series focused a lot on the victims and tried to give some insight on what could lead someone to become a serial killer (the psychology after all is often what interests people most about true crime). It’s starting to get on my nerves the chastisation of people if they either want to watch true crime or artistically tell stories that are in the public domain (and often happened DECADES ago). I didnt even know half of the victims names until i watched the Dahmer series, and now i know a lot more about them as HUMANS not just one of his numbers. I also have a brain that realises that it isn’t a documentary so am not using a dramatised series as a reference to real life events. I also thought Evan Peters was attractive - no that doesn’t mean I fancy Jeffrey Dahmer or am fangirling over a serial killer. I really wish people would stop moralising every single thing, entertainment is entertainment and should make you feel things, be curious, learn etc. not all of us want to sit around watching Telletubbies and stories where every character is lovely and “unproblematic”. We watch films about wars, rape, murder, we want to confront our fears and empathise with the experiences of others - as long as it’s not gratuitous i don’t see what the big issue is.

Oh man thank you for this.. I was starting to wonder if I was the only one thinking this way. I think making true crime series or reenactments is ethical if the depiction comes from good intentions. I would question a show if the creators went out of their way to make someone (especially a victim) look bad or ill represented, but creating reenactments from a place of respect and compassion is in my opinion morally justified.

Thank you for this! So glad I'm not the only one who thinks this way. You literally said every single thing i've been thinking since the show came out. I loved the show I think it was done very well and in a respectful manor, I love learning about true crime cases because it's what I'm interested in, and I love Evan as an actor and as a person. I wish people would stop hating on him simply because he played the role of Dahmer in a show. People are so sensitive. Like you said, not everybody only wants to watch stuff that's all sunshine and rainbows all the time. I wish more people understood that some people like watching dark stuff but it doesn't mean we don't feel terrible and upset for the victims and their families either. So I wholeheartedly agree with you and I wish more people had this mindset
@YoHoHoAndCake
Жыл бұрын
I'm not against it either but I do think if the immediate families of the victims or people who were directly involved are still around their wishes should be prioritized. If they were to be against the reenactment of their tragedy and monetization of it, it should be respected, at least in their lifetime. There's plenty of crime stories to tell, unfortunately, so leaving some alone wouldn't be a problem if someone were so inclined to produce that kind of thing.

That is interesting when you said the most ethical form of True Crime reporting is Journalism. After Columbine and the way it was covered, the way it was glamorized and so much misinformation was published in articles and books (Columbine by Dave Cullen has a massive number of inaccuracies) there has been a push by many people who have been affected by the 24/7 news cycle to be far more ethical.

In the early days of Truecrime she was one of the first I started watching and have stuck with to this day because her content has evolved to include lesser known cases, some of which involving indigenous, trans, unsolved cases that mainstream reporting media simply does not bring attention to. She also makes it a point to collaborate with family’s of victims and state s at the beginning of her videos to exercise kindness when leaving a comment as the family usually do read the comment section.

I've watched a few of the episodes to see what they were like, as someone whos interested in True Crime I already knew THAT way of presenting it wasn't respectful but I was curious on how it looks. Evan I'm sure has a lot of emotions about this situation with the series and peoples views on it. I couldn't finish it because it was too gruesome and makes it hard to watch knowing it's based off real life crimes (obviously the show has it's faults with making it more theatrical in some scenes which I think is worsem..) Honestly looking back sadly, I'm not surprised with Ryan Murphy doing this. He added real life serial killer characters to his shows like AHS Hotel with that scene of serial killers spirits sitting together at a table or in AHS 1984 since the story involves Richard Ramirez.... As well as the season Cult which had Evan Peters dress up as different cult leaders for different scenes like Marshall Applewhite the leader of Heaven's Gate, Charles Manson, and Jim Jones. I feel that would taken a toll on Evan.

The thing is that, I've yet to see anyone think what Jeffrey Dahmer did was good, but now because there's a fictional version of him played by an extremely attractive man, people just think, "Oh Jeffrey Dahmer was a serial killer.... but he was cute." There's more of an admiration of both men's beauty rather than focusing on the bad things he or they did.

If people are demonizing Evan Peters only just now that Dahmer just came out, for playing Dahmer… Jeremy Renner played Dahmer in a movie years ago. Zac Efron played Ted Bundy, John Cusack played Robert Hansen in The Frozen Ground… Nobody went off on these actors for playing these roles. Did Evan Peters play alot of dark roles - yeah… However Evan hasn’t been some huge, famous actor until more recently… As a younger and newer actor, you get a script, and as a young actor, you just take the role. I really don’t see why Peters is being criticized for playing Dahmer… I don’t know why people were against the making of the series. Yes, I understand the victims families feelings on it, however the Dahmer story was already showcased in a movie… So why is nobody talking about that, or the several other serial killer movies and shows that have been made? I just don’t get it.
