The team behind “Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” knew full well there was a fine line between staying authentic to the story of the titular serial killer and glamorizing his crimes, and that extended to every single department on the Netflix series.
“My biggest fear when I started working on this project was that Jeff could come off as a sympathetic character, which I know is not something that any of us wanted,” editor Stephanie Filo said in a new installment of TheWrap’s of “How I Did It” sponsored by Netflix. “I think that also led to us dialing back in the edit as well.

For the sound team behind Netflix’s “Dahmer — Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story” — including production sound mixer Amanda Beggs and re-recording mixer Laura Wiest — it was important to do a deep dive into the Jeffrey Dahmer case after signing onto the true crime drama, so that they had a clear sense of how much of the show was fact, as opposed to fiction.
“After getting the scripts and starting to read them, I, of course, was curious as far as how much was true, how much was fiction, and so just sort of did my own diving into the research, just out of sheer curiosity, just to know sort of how truthful the show was trying to be,” Beggs tells Gold Derby during a recent webchat (watch the exclusive video interview above). “Because I think that also informs the performances and everything as well — and that’s obviously my goal: to capture performance.
