Based on cartoonist Derf Backderf's graphic novel the project sees Lynch play Dahmer during his high school years in the 1970's. The young man struggles with a difficult family life and the urge and thoughts of wanting to kill.
Dahmer is one of the most infamous serial killers om record=he raped and murdered seventeen men and boys in the late 1970s through the early 1990s by way of dismemberment and cannibalism. He was killed in prison in 1994.
Marc Meyers ("Harvest") will direct the film from a script that he wrote that made the 2014 Black
List.
Adam Goldworm is producing the pic. Production begins in Ohio in August.
Wow! You can't get further away from the Disney nice than playing a future serial killer. Lynch can pass for Dahmer. If he has the acting chops to explore a dark side--this could put him on the map with non Tweens--Will be watching to see where this one ends up.
