Monster (2022) • The Ed Gein Story Ratings & Reviews

Melanie McFarland
It may seem as if the point is to turn the mirror on society's endless appetite for monstrosity. But, as usual, the makers of "Monster" want to have it all ways.

Season 3 is visceral, uncomfortable, and tells this true story of Ed Gein in a slightly fictionalized way, not straying away from his atrocities. Hunnam makes some interesting decisions that are memorable, regardless of how divisive they will be.

The Ed Gein Story will be hard to top in subsequent seasons of Monster, but for now, this is a scary ass story perfect to watch for Halloween.

Something so artless deserves no analysis. Let dead things lie.
Common Sense Media
Melissa Camacho
Watching "Monster: The Ed Gein Story" can be an overwhelming experience, and many viewers will find it too difficult or disturbing.
TheWrap
Matthew Creith
"Monster: The Ed Gein Story" strives to tell this monster's story, but fails to deliver eight episodes worthy of a binge watch. Fantastic performances are diluted with exaggerated B-stories that go nowhere at a slow pace.
TIME Magazine
Judy Berman
A show that hates itself.
Pajiba
Jen Maravegias
Pop Culture is a mirror of society's fears and desires, not the cause of them. It also exempts Murphy et al from being party to sensationalizing Gein's life when they might be the most egregious perpetrators.
ABC4 Utah
Patrick Beatty
Charlie Hunnam is a great actor and delivers a great perforamce, as well as the others involved, but ultimately the perspective the story chooses to take is far too close for comfort.
Consequence

In execution, the series is high on its own farts. Which is fitting, because The Ed Gein Story has all of the impact of a wet one.
Reno News and Review
Bob Grimm
Shows like this are proof that God hates you.
IndieWire
Ben Travers
While bluntly, artlessly realized, the argument that "Monster" makes is clear: These iconic horror movies, as well as the culture they helped create, connect back to Ed Gein.
The Hollywood Reporter
Daniel Fienberg
Monster: The Ed Gein Story is awful, but its awfulness at least arises out of some level of thoroughly disjointed ambition.
FandomWire
M.N. Miller
The series sensationalizes rumor over truth and mistakes provocation for substance.
WBAL-TV (Baltimore)
Lauren Veneziani
Charlie Hunnam gives one of the best performances of his career as Ed Gein. Completely haunting and disturbing and emotional.
Slant Magazine
Ross McIndoe
The latest installment of the true-crime anthology series is shallow and abrasive.
Cinemasters
Rua Fay
While I appreciate that the show examines Ed from multiple angles, not enough emphasis is placed on the moral depravity of his crimes.
Screen Rant
Greg MacArthur
Monster season 3 only elicits unpleasantries - boredom, frustration, confusion, disgust. This isn't just a botched series; it's perverse & senseless.
Variety
Aramide Tinubu
"Monster" makes Ed Gein mythical again, and in turn strips away the texture and grit that was desperately needed to make the series work.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
To say that 'Monster: The Ed Gein Story' is one of the most unfocused of Ryan Murphy's productions is quite a thing indeed.
