Netflix has released the first teaser for the sequel to the crime anthology about killers called «Monsters: The Story of Lyle and Eric Menendez».
The short video shows two men approaching a fenced mansion with guns in their hands. They go inside and head to the living room. The screen suddenly goes dark, followed by two gunshots.
Netflix has announced that the series will have its world premiere on September 19, 2024. The new season of the anthology from Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, the creators of «American Horror Story», will focus on a high-profile case from the 1990s.
The plot tells the story of brothers Lyle and Eric Menendez, who were convicted of their parents’ murder in 1996. According to the official synopsis, the prosecutor’s office claimed that the brothers wanted to inherit the family fortune. Instead, the defendants explained their actions by fear of years of physical, emotional and sexual abuse by their parents.

Despite mixed reviews from critics, the series received 82% of viewer approval on the Rotten Tomatoes website.
