Download Free Dahmer

There was something really beautiful about this film. As "disturbing"
as the content was. I think it was good, because it didn't glorify the
violence, or let the violence and the acts themselves become the main
focus. And it wasn't one of those failed "introspective" looks into the
mind and life of a killer, it felt "real" to me, well as real as I'd
perceive someone like him to have been. But I can honestly say I felt
affected and a little disturbed by this film. Not because there were
blood and entrails scattered across the screen, but because it felt so
candid, and so...believable. And it should have been, he was an actual
human being who committed actual atrocities. I mean, this feeling I had
at the end of the movie could have been because I began watching it at
12 am or 1 am on IFC when I had a fever, but I still feel it was an
excellent film. The acting was really great, and I think this film is
definitely worth checking out..

awesome.

very interesting!.

great movie.

great movie.

great movie.

The Town: it was ok. Rebecca Hall was boring, Ben Affleck was ok. Jon Hamm yawn. Blake Lively was surprisingly ok. Jeremy Renner as always great. He's a very good actor and very convincing. The Last King of Scotland: Loved it. Intense and powerful. James McAvoy was awesome. I don't know why he didn't win an Oscar. Forrest Whittacker was good but I thought James McAvoy was the main character..

David Jacobson wrote (with David Birke) and directed this probing
psychological study of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. It is an
extraordinarily fine film on every level, not the least of which is the
manner in which Jacobson elected to dissect the slowly rotting mind of
an avatar (as in the incarnation of evil) model of alienation, profound
loneliness, and victim of sexual frustration that eventually explodes
into the heinous results of those unrecognized symptoms. It is a
masterpiece of understatement, not straying away from the horror of the
idea of what is happening, but at the same time not relying on the
graphic depictions that so many film on similar subjects stoop to in
order to attract audiences. The Dahmer of Jacobson's vision is a lonely
youth, a man who craves attention and affection of others but must
resort to drugs and violence to reach his goals of partnering with a
fellow human being, a coming together that though the means are
abominable the end result is an expression of tenderness that few films
have been able to reveal.

Much of the success of this superb film is due to the acting of Jeremy
Renner as Dahmer. He has created a character whose shy and desperate
needs progress until he is able to achieve his obsession of feeling
affection from others. The scenes in the bars where he repeatedly
dances with attractive men, drugs their drinks, and then helps them to
the back rooms where, comatose, they become his lovers for the moment
(so very subtly suggested by the fine cinematography technique of
strobe lighting momentary glimmers by Chris Manley with the able
assistance of editor Biasha Shom). So much of the seduction and
actually killing is left to the viewer's imagination that it is only
with three encounters - played with virtuosity by Artel Kayàru, Matt
Newton, and Dion Basco - that include the verbal interplay that reveal
Dahmer's submerged yet profound needs and frustrations. Jacobson's use
of flashbacks to Dahmer's experiences that fed his inability to relate
to feelings that were denied him by society spare us also of witnessing
all of the murders and associated atrocities that Dahmer committed, and
in the end that technique helps us understand how a boy to man can
alter in the direction of maturation to become one of the most famous
serial killers of our time. (FACTS: Jeffrey Lionel Dahmer (May 21, 1960
- November 28, 1994) was an American serial killer and sex offender.
Dahmer murdered 17 men and boys - many of whom were of African or Asian
descent - between 1978 and 1991, with the majority of the murders
occurring between 1987 and 1991. His murders were particularly
gruesome, involving rape, torture, dismemberment, necrophilia and
cannibalism. On November 28, 1994, he was beaten to death by an inmate
at the Columbia Correctional Institution, where he had been
incarcerated.)

Made in 2002 and garnering many Indie awards, it is amazing that this
film was not taken more seriously by the public. Perhaps the immaturity
of the audience prevented those who usually flock to the blood and
slaughter films of the 'Saw' series, 'Freddy Krueger' films, etc from
accepting this story as a true one, not a festival of CGI effects.
Jeremy Renner is now recognized as one of our leading actors: perhaps
this film should be released again so that audiences can appreciate the
masterful degree of his acting skills.
