Dahmer (2002) - Drive-In Double Feature Episode 434
from Drive-In Double Feature Podcast · host Drive-In Double Feature
Nathan and Ryan take a grim turn with Dahmer (2002), the unsettling true-crime drama starring Jeremy Renner as infamous serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. Instead of leaning into exploitation, the film opts for a cold, restrained approach, focusing on isolation, routine, and the quiet horror of unchecked violence. The hosts discuss Renner’s chilling performance, the film’s muted tone, and whether Dahmer succeeds as a character study rather than a traditional serial killer thriller. It’s an uncomfortable watch—and a very different kind of horror than the usual Drive-In fare.
