Director Joe Berlinger crafts a stunning film that is as gripping and devilishly engrossing as its subject. The attention to detail here is fantastic and it certainly doesn't go unseen. Berlinger makes one of this years most anticipated films, one you can't miss.
I can't think of anyone more fit to play Ted Bundy none other than Zac Efron. The resemblance Efron has with the serial killer is uncanny. Efron is a charming, devilish and disturbed Bundy. No doubt this film will be his best.
The former "Disney Channel" star has certainly outdone himself, with his "Disney" days behind him, Efron has been kept busy and this is just perhaps Efron's best performance of his career. Opposite Efron, is Lily Collins, who tells the events of the film as the girlfriend of Bundy. Collins gives an outstanding performance and is just as entertaining as Efron.
Even for those who remember the trials of Ted Bundy, this film will serve as a reminder and as a history lesson to those not around to know of this evildoer. The films title is a direct quote from Judge Edward Cowart and needless to say, these crime are indeed as it shows. This film is one of the most thrilling films of the year.
