Netflix's 'Monsters: The Lyle And Erik Menendez Story' Teaser Trailer Gives an Eerie Glimpse of What's To Come

Netflix has dropped a new teaser trailer for its upcoming true crime drama series Monsters: The Lyle And Erik Menendez Story. Leading up to the official release date in mid-September, Netflix drops the teaser to give audiences a glimpse of what is to come for the second installment of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan's true-crime anthology series starring Javier Bardem as the father José, Chloë Sevigny as mother Kitty, Cooper Koch as Erik and Nicholas Alexander Chavez as Lyle.

The series follows the events of real-life brothers Lyle and Eric Menendez who murdered their parents José and Kitty in their homes on August 20, 1989. In the first teaser, the streamer opened with showing the two brothers seemingly driving onto their parents' estate and walking into the house. Two gunshots are then heard after opening the door and entering the home. The logline reads, "While the prosecution argued they were seeking to inherit their family fortune, the brothers claimed – and remain adamant to this day, as they serve life sentences without the possibility of parole – that their actions stemmed out of fear from a lifetime of physical, emotional, and sexual abuse at the hands of their parents." The events of the historic case sparked worldwide attention at the time, still inciting questions of who is truly the monster.

In the new teaser trailer, audiences get a further glimpse of what is to come. As the family poses for a photo, Kitty is heard speaking to José in a voiceover, "I need to know what's going on with you and boys." José then replies, "What do you mean?" Kitty continues, "I need to know. I don't want there to be any more lies between us. I won't tell anyone." José ends the conversation with Kitty with, “It is over. Stop. I'm going to fix this family."

Watch the teaser above. Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story premieres on September 19 on Netflix.
