      He scared the shit out of me, too. His performance is just.. outsanding, and inhumanly awesome! He literally WAS Cunanan in that show, and his portrayal of Andrew was just as disturbing and his behavior as bizarre as I imagine Andrew Cunanan would've been if I met him.

There are some ignorant people who will attribute it to their Filipino background when it has nothing to do with it. I’m proud of my heritage 🇵🇭 and these two particular bad people don’t represent us.

    3rd time watching the film and each time I grow more and more in love with the acting...Darren Criss is brilliant as Andrew Cunanan. I still am not sure why Andrew killed. I think that each killing was for a different reason. I certainly hope that he and the actors and the show win Emmys...the character is intelligent, sad, mentally ill--absolutely!, personality disorder. and ADD psychopathic, grandiose, angry, manipulative, thinks he is entitled. I think that there is a little bit of him in each of us. One thing in common with serial killers was his dysfunctional and abusive childhood. Additionally, I wouldn't doubt that he was raped by his father as a child. Sad. You really see Darren's acting in the scene with the pharmacist and Andrew is completing the application--the comment about his father owning a pineapple plantation---now that was good...it is in Episode 8. Andrew was a sad, sad, wounded child.

    Something that i think everyone is missing, is that Versace was supported. He had a dream and a supportive family. Andrew had none. His dad just wanted him to be big, but he never told him in what way. Obviously the man had a huge impact on Andrew's life. His dad didn't love him, he loved his potential, and he couldn't even use that potential right. I think the real garbage is the dad here.
