I'm not sure I get the attraction, myself, but it's very clear that Netflix is finding huge success with dramatisations of grisly real-world crimes and serial killer stories – it's producing more and more of them over time, after all. Now, it's unveiled one of its biggest ever, and it looks likely to be one of the most disturbing shows it's ever made.
Monster: The Ed Gein Story continues the anthology format of the Monster franchise, which has previously looked at the Menendez brothers and other criminals. This time, as the title suggests, it turns its attention on Ed Gein, a notorious murderer whose house was discovered to be full of macabre keepsakes – he'll be played by Charlie Hunnam, looking almost unrecognisable.
