Final Words
The trailer of the MONSTERS: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story series is sure to give us goosebumps, as it shows the emotional and the physical pain the two brothers went through. It shows their desire to be loved by their parents, and have a happy family. However, it is rightly said we generally don’t get what we want, just how these brothers never got the affection and care. All they got, was the abusing and lashes from their father, blame by their mother, as to how she couldn’t succeed in her career because of them, and much more.
One of the scenes in the Monsters trailer shows their mother saying, “I hate my kids, they’re parasites, they have turned us into people we don’t wanna be.” which clearly portrays her cold behaviour towards her kids.
The brothers were inseparable and ready to choose each other over their parents always. The household always had clashes, fights, abuses going on, which hampered the children’s mental health. As said by one of the characters in the trailer, “I see what happens when kids don’t get the nurturing they need.”
If you love watching thriller drama, this Netflix series MONSTERS: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story is a perfect fit for you. The trailer and these powerful quotes, dialogues and lines must have already added to your curiosity to watch the series and find out, what happened to the brothers later, the mystery behind their parents death and much more.
