Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story key art
Over three seasons, industry powerhouse Ryan Murphy has captivated audiences with dramatized tales of true crime in his anthology series, American Crime Story. The debut installment focused on the O.J. Simpson trial, while the second followed serial killer Andrew Cunanan, who eventually wound up on the doorstep of Gianni Versace to murder the fashion icon.
“I was interested in putting it under Monsters because I think there’s a case to be made that everybody involved is a monster . You know, the brothers certainly did monstrous things, the parents reportedly did monstrous things, and it was complicated . I’ve always wanted to do a season about something that had sort of a Rashomon approach where you took all of these different theories or conspiracies and you weave those through the narrative, and this show just had so many of them.
And look — there were four people involved in that. Two of them were murdered, so only God really knows for sure what happened.”
