Netflix has announced the premiere date of Monster: The Ed Gein Story which will be held on October 3. It stars Charlie Hunnam as the notorious murderer known as the Butcher of Plainfield.
This new season from Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan will show how Ed Gein became a “singular ghoul.” According to the official statement, “Monster: The Ed Gein Story depicts how a simple man from Plainfield, Wisconsin became one of the most ruthless criminals. He showed the world the truth — monsters are not born, but created … by society.”
Hunnam joins the cast with Suzanna Son, Tom Hollander, Laurie Metcalf, Vicky Krieps, Olivia Williams, Joey Pollari, Tyler Jacob Moore, Charlie Hall, Will Brill, Mimi Kennedy, Robin Weigert, and Lesley Manville.
Ed Gein committed a series of heinous crimes from the late ’40s to the late ’50s. He was caught killing two women but was suspected of killing seven more. He also dug up bodies from cemeteries to make strange objects. His obsession with his mother inspired horror classics such as Psycho, Silence of the Lambs, and Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
Don't miss Monster: The Ed Gein Story which will be available to watch starting October 3 on Netflix.
