Netflix's 'Monster: The Ed Gein Story' starring Charlie Hunnam to premiere in October

Netflix has released a new trio of posters along with an official release date for Monster: The Ed Gein Story, which is the third installment of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan's anthology series, described as the "most harrowing" one yet. 

Serial killer. Grave robber. Psycho. In the frozen fields of 1950s rural Wisconsin, a friendly, mild-mannered recluse named Eddie Gein lived quietly on a decaying farm – hiding a house of horrors so gruesome it would redefine the American nightmare. Driven by isolation, psychosis, and an all-consuming obsession with his mother, Gein’s perverse crimes birthed a new kind of monster that would haunt Hollywood for decades. From Psycho to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre to The Silence of the Lambs, Gein’s macabre legacy gave birth to fictional monsters born in his image and ignited a cultural obsession with the criminally deviant. Ed Gein didn’t just influence a genre -- he became the blueprint for modern horror.

The cast includes Charlie Hunnam as Ed Gein, Suzanna Son as Adeline Watkins, Tom Hollander as Alfred Hitchcock, Laurie Metcalf as Augusta Gein, Vicky Krieps as Ilse Koch, Olivia Williams as Alma Reville, Joey Pollari as Anthony Perkins, Tyler Jacob Moore as Sheriff Schley, Charlie Hall as Deputy Worden, Will Brill as Tobe Hooper, Mimi Kennedy as Dr. Mildred Newman, Robin Weigert as Enid Watkins, and Lesley Manville as Bernice Worden.
