This was Renner’s first main role, and he totally nailed it.
DAHMER 2002 PLOT MOVIE
That was a dangerous risk, because at times the movie becomes a little bit boring, but pretty much manages to keep the thrilling and tension until the end.Īlso remarkable is the sublime work by Jeremy Renner as the title character. It is more a matter of detailing some selected moments, more than showing the 17 killings and rejoicing in the gore. Writer and director David Jacobson imprints in this his second film an atmosphere of sexual perversion and cruelty in the character of the murderer Dahmer that keeps the tension douring all the film. With a delicate care of the film photography and the acting, Dahmer (the movie) shows a little fraction of what happened to Dahmer (the person) to make steps forward into going from a normal middle class teenager with homosexual tendencies and alcoholic problems to turning into a calculative and meditative predator always looking for his next victim to satisfy his wicked sexual perversions.
The movie narrative is not linial at all, since it begins with an adult Jeff Dahmer but it constantly flashback to his teenage years when his first murder was commited. This american despicable celebrity was found responsable of the death of 17 people, all male, between 19.
DAHMER 2002 PLOT SERIAL
Probably the most notorious ones for the big audience could be Charles Manson or John Wayne Gacy, there have been rivers of ink and millions of hours on TV talking about them, but the list of killers is almost endless.ĭahmer is a thriller biopic that tells you part of the life and murders story of the serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer, also known as “the Cannibal of Milwaukee”.

With targeted film cuts, Dahmer's youth is also shown, his relationship with his parents, and at least tries to give clues for his later actions.Īlthough the script reflects the actual events, the names of the victims have been changed for personal rights. The film closes with the note that Jeffrey Dahmer was murdered by a fellow inmate in 1994 after serving two years of his life sentence. Only when the young African-American Rodney escapes from Dahmer's apartment, the officers manage to arrest him.

He first photographs them, then masturbates and performs sadistic experiments on them before he murders them. He addresses them in department stores, bars, pubs and other public places and invites them to his home. In his spare time he looks out for young, mostly homosexual men. The plot of the film begins in a chocolate factory in Milwaukee, Wisconsin : the young white Jeffrey Dahmer leads an inconspicuous life as a band worker.
