Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story was released on Netflix last week .

It stars Cooper Koch and Nicholas Alexander Chavez as the two brothers.

It is the follow-up to the first Monsters series focused on US serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer .

Erik and Lyle Menendez are two brothers who killed their parents in 1989 .

The brothers claimed they committed the murders in self defence after years of alleged physical, emotional and sexual abuse.

Critics have slammed the show as a "messy, salacious slog".

Murphy says 60-65% of his show centre around the abuse, and what they claim happened to them.

Murphy : "We do it very carefully and we give them their day in court, and they talk openly about it" Murphy says he and his team felt it was important to show things from the parents' point of view.
