DAHMER - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story | Evan Peters On The Complexity Of Playing Dahmer

[@leokimvideo]

Evan Peters will win every award available. His portrayal of Jeff Dahmer is surreal because it feels so real. As the horror story unfolds you have to keep reminding yourself that this really happened and the Police were really that bad in not getting Dahmer many years earlier. This series is like a bolt-on to Mindhunter, but way more graphic.

[@echeguevara77]

He should win every award available. He was absolutely amazing. It's not very often that I think 'Wow, that was an amazing performance' when it comes to actors, but that was an amazing performance. And I'm not a fan, this is the first thing I've ever seen him in.

The dude has become one of the greatest actors of this era. You give him a role and he'll be award worthy. The attention to detail, voices, and mannerisms is about as authentic as it gets. You feel these scenes deep and tend to forget you're watching a show. Bravo man you're killing it!

i was just saying this to my husband last night about him. from the change if his voice the way he walks his posture and the way he holds the accent through every portrayed emotion. He really is an amazing actor and very under rated.

[@rebeccagosling4166]

I just said that same thing. Evan Peters did a phenomenal job with Dahmer’s accent and how he walks. It had to be rough playing him but he did really well.

[@laylaminjares3077]

He nailed the character dead on. I kept saying why is he so monotone but then watching the actual videos he literally is monotone is everything he talks of

[@Kazza_8240]

@GarTree 'terribly written shows', do you mean AHS, where he appeared every series as a different character, and played them all *so* well that you forget about previous ones and get immersed in his performance? AHS was *brilliantly* written too

[@Cloudy-i9m]

The fact that Evan Peters can look so soft/kind in real life but then completely change when acting- it’s just immaculate acting!

[@mencot89]

You could see this soft side on this show when he sometimes smiled with his dimples showing. I think they did right choosing him for the role coz Dahmer as himself was having this really weak, softie part that overcompensates with his evil side when he let it taking over. Evan played that so well.

[@fia7671]

His performance was completely PHENOMENAL. It was on spot on how he played this terrifying person, he’s incredibly talented. I truly hope he’s okay after playing such a dark role. He definitely deserves more recognition and an emmy for this, i absolutely adore him & his acting skills !!

[@Janetheduck]

I agree, I think it's probably helpful that he has played in many dark and disturbing seasons with AHS.. of course this is his darkest Role but I've always seen him as the guy that plays these dark roles so well. So hopefully that will help him overcome such a role as Dahmer.

[@frobbsy27]

Completely agree! He actually stopped doing AHS bc apparently the show was going too dark...which surprises me after seeing his chilling portrayal of Dahmer in this series. The commitment required to play such an intense character would take a psychological toll on almost anybody...Heath Ledger is a prime example😔I hope he gets an Oscar for this. He deserves it.

As an actress Ive admired Evan Peters work from ever AHS character he’s played. He definitely leaves a part of him in his craft. His acting in this character was breath taking, gave me chills. I always judge actors on whether I can forget their “identity” and see them as the “character” they are playing. And he made me feel like Dahmer was right on the screen. Excellent work.

[@rollerboogie]

I'm not an actor but that's also how I've learned to judge acting. Do I see them as the character or as an actor playing a role. I 100% believed he was dahmer and even had to turn this show off a bunch of times. And I can handle a lot in terms of horror/gore/etc. This was just legitimately disturbing and he did an amazing job telling a very difficult story.

Evan peters deserves every award that he could possibly win for his portrayal of Jeffrey Dahmer on the show. He portrayed someone who was so mentally and honestly, physically unable to be a normal human man. He had to get into the psyche of someone who viewed people that he had brought home from clubs or bars, while he was blackout drunk as victims and tortured and possibly consume them, and that is something that I would think, would be hard for any actor to “digest“. The fact that Evan could get into that mindset and is acknowledging the fact that it was something that was incredibly hard to do is exactly the reason why he is such an incredible actor. He always dives straight into every role he has ever had in anything. He is incredible in every single thing that he has ever portrayed and this is the first time that he has portrayed someone who is the actual human being that existed on this earth. Yes, every other person he has ever played as someone that was based on real people but not an actual person. And I think that makes him so diverse and how he can dive right into any rolls of his handed to him takes it on fully with no questions asked honestly. There aren’t many actors out there that are like him. I wish him all of the awards he deserves everything. Free

Evan Peters is highly underrated, he is an absolute excellent actor. I love it when actors do these kinds of roles because you really get to see them express their talent in new and unexpected ways. I wouldn’t say Peters is typecast, but a good number of his roles have been sort of comedic goofball type stuff, so when you see someone like him play a role such as this, it really is impressive to watch this whole other side of their capabilities as an actor come out. Awesome work, I think this is definitely an award-worthy performance for sure 👍🏻

Underrated, really? Most of us love his acting so no, he's not underrated.

@@gabysixx5078 I think OP is commenting on how Evan isn’t a household name, more of a hidden gem in the acting world not really talked about

He played Jeffrey Dahmer so well that when I started watching this interview, I thought “what happened to him,” in the sense that I was expecting to see “Dahmer” instead of Evan Peters. Absolutely flawless acting.

We need more interviews with Evan Peters! His natural hair and beard is everything

[@suzannebennett8987]

...and his very beautiful dark brown eyes!

[@tamialeslie7187]

True I’m feeling the beard😍

[@islandgyal9216]

He deserves an award for this role , no matter how sick Jeffrey was Evan made the whole series real

[@scturnn]

You're sick

[@dexterboycat]

Unbelievable performance. I cannot get over how well he did Jeffrey Dahmer’s voice. I’m blown away by Evan’s talent!

[@ally9174]

never truly felt the impact of Konerak and Tony’s death and the moments before until i watched Dahmer. Evan Peters did a marvelous job at portraying a real life monster, my heart goes out to all the victims and their families, may you all be in peace

[@maseratibarbie435]

Tonys Story was so beautiful.. he just wanted to be loved. I cried so much when he died

[@Lorne1218]

Absolutely

[@copperhead2694]

Yeah I’m sure the families are at such peace now with Dahmer face all over the media again and millions of people talking about all over again.. yeah I’m sure they are at such peace while Netflix takes in millions on the pain and suffering their loved ones when through.

I was deemed "Violent extremism" after a post on TikTok stating "Leave Evan Peters alone" after the backlash he's getting from this true crime acting role. He is NOT responsible for people finding Jeffrey attractive. That's their own business. Cancel culture is so twisted hence I deleted the absurd platform. WELL DONE EVAN AND BE STRONG ❤

[@alleyj826]

I don’t think I would watch this if Evan wasn’t playing him just because it’s so heartbreaking. No matter how dark of a character Evan has to play, he adds this lightness and heart to them and makes them bearable to watch. Can’t wait to see what he does with this role.

[@tasha1357]

Yeah I wouldn’t watch if Evan wasn’t in it either.

[@tmrxoxo]

Jeremy rennet did good on the movie too

[@thepunisherclub6442]

What about Jeremy Renner and Ross Lynch on their portrayals of Jeffrey Dahmer?

[@Lillian.Gao.]

You nailed it - Evan is so beloved, despite not being a household name (yet), because he has this LIGHT emanating from inside in all roles. i guess it’s what they call the X Factor
