Starring Evan Peters as the notorious serial killer, the series takes on the perspective of his victims as well as the police incompetency which allowed the Wisconsin native to go on a killing spree spanning years.
A look at Rotten Tomatoes shows that audience scores were far higher than critics’, as the latter gave the series a 50% rating despite there being no consensus as of yet.
However, the main critique seems to be coming from the families involved in the killings. One of the cousins of the victims revealed that, given its autobiographical nature, the show is ‘re-traumatising over and over again.’
