Sick or Evil or Both: “My Friend Dahmer” and the Coverage of White Killers
This HBO mini-series asks why a young white man turned to violence and finds no easy answers. But why do we only ask questions about certain kinds of killers?

After the death of Iris, her twin sister Dalia tries to erase the dark memories of a life marked by abuse. Yet, an unfinished game of Jenga ties her to the past. Night after night, a disturbing presence returns, dragging Dalia into haunting dreams. As darkness consumes her, Dalia realizes that what haunts her is not Iris, but something that possessed her before she died. Only by understanding the signs her true sister sends from beyond will she be able to end the nightmare. The unbreakable bond between the twins holds the key to winning the game—and finding peace.
