Netflix on Wednesday released the official first trailer for “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story,” starring “General Hospital” alum Nicholas Alexander Chavez (ex-Spencer Cassadine) as Lyle and Cooper Koch as Erik. Javier Bardem and Chloë Sevigny play their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez.

Premiering Thursday, September 19 at 3:00 a.m. ET/midnight PT on the streaming platform, the second installment in the “Monsters” anthology series details the Menendez brothers in the events leading up to and following their decision to fatally shoot and kill their parents in the family’s Beverly Hills mansion on August 20, 1989.

While the brothers were later convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, during their trial, they cited years of abuse at the hands of their father as the reason behind the murders, a matter that receives ample coverage in the newly released trailer.

Check out the official trailer below.

In addition to Chavez, Koch, Bardem and Sevigny, Nathan Lane appears as investigative journalist Dominick Dunne, who covered the trials for Vanity Fair, while Ari Graynor takes on the role of Leslie Abramson, lead counsel for Erik Menendez. “Days of our Lives” alum Tanner Stine (ex-Joey Johnson) appears in the series as Perry Berman.

    • Randy (Doug's friend who works for Joey) -- Joey told Randy weeks ago that Joey's plan was to get Doug into so much debt that Doug would be forced to get Vanessa's real estate holding turned over to Joey, to use for money-laundering.  That's been the plan all along, which the viewers knew.  The only thing new is that Joey finally told Doug this. I think Joey is written badly.  I also think Jon Lindstrom is doing "Now I am going to act menacing".   But I don't really feel the menace.  It's too overdramatic and it doesn't feel like a real person.  Jon is a fine actor on GH, so I don't know what's happening here -- the entire BTG mobster premise is badly designed/written.  I don't know if Guza pushed for a mobster storyline?  Or did Jon?  (Jon wrote a novel about Hollywood mobsters). It just doesn't fit.  It feels (to me) like this storyline for Jon was just shoved onto the canvas but it doesn't fit all all. Monday's scene of Mona coming into the "casino" to check up on where Leslie supposedly lost money in the slot machines -- and Randy explaining to Mona that there are no slot machines, there is nothing but the card room.  I had to laugh because they had characters comment that it's just a card room and not a casino -- the show is now acknowledging that there's nothing there.  If they are going to do this, then have it make sense for Fairmont Crest residents to visit a high-end glamourous casino, and not a random room with one table. So what money is Joey laundering? A while back, Joey told Vanessa that he knows about her sexual philandering because owns the escort service that she'd been using. But I don't care...  I'd just prefer that the entire mobster storyline go away. 
    • I caught up this past weekend. The show is better written, but I have been bored with the show. I did notice it ranked in the top 5 again this week, so that's a good sign.
    • I can't take this show seriously. I truly miss WJB writing this show. Bradley didn't inherit his dad's talent.
    • Maybe if there had been a good close up or two
