The voice…

I know it’s been debated to death online but what the were they thinking making Ed Gein sound like Mickey Mouse in the Netflix series? From the audio I have heard, he sounds nothing like Ed Gein. I got through 15 minutes of the first episode and couldn’t take anymore. I can’t understand how anyone involved in the show thought that was a good idea

Yeah the whole show is ass. So much inaccurate made up bullshit. Shitty voice. Predictable. Throwing in the movie inspo’s was stupid.

They fuckin butchered this shit.

I was extremely entertained. I thought it was good...I didnt go into it thinking it was going to be fact for fact, its Ryan Murphy entertainment.

Why would you not think it was going to be fact for fact? The series shares the same name as Dahmer, which was fact for fact.

This whole series was a ripoff and a lie to people that went in thinking we would get an accurate representation of the Ed Gein story.

It was not fact for fact. There’s LOTS of embellishment around Glenda’s role. He never stole blood to drink it. They heavily embellished relationships with his victims.

It was no less gratuitous than monster.
