Queer Killers

Arts, TV & Film

MY FRIEND DAHMER is the acclaimed new film from Marc Meyers, which chronicles the rise to notoriety of infamous gay serial killer, Jeffrey Dahmer. It hit Australian cinemas earlier this month, so to celebrate, we turned our attention to films about queer killers: think ROPE and MONSTER.

Our guest was MY FRIEND DAHMER director Marc Meyers. We talked with Meyers about his new film, the early life of Jeffrey Dahmer and why it was so important to bring it to the big screen.

Essential viewing: Rope (1948, Dir. Alfred Hitchcock)

Hungry for more: You’re Killing Me (2017, Dir. Jim Hansen)
