    Rewatching “Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile.” Enjoyed it the first time. It’s the Ted Bundy story from basically the perspective of Bundy’s longest girlfriend Liz Kloepfer.

    Five for a Pound DVDs of Halloween Day 4. Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile (2019) I don't think I've ever seen a true crime serial killer flick that I didn't like. Zac Effron is great as Ted Bundy. I didn't recognize Hayley Joel Osment. James Hetfield from Metallica is a cop! Recommended.

    Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 6/10 IMDb 3 Letterboxd Efron and Lilly are both decent, but it’s tonally flat. Bundy’s crimes were as the judge as title suggest, but this really doesn’t give any gravitas to anything that happened.

    May 3 2019 EXTREMELY WICKED, SHOCKINGLY EVIL AND VILE opens. Dir. Joe Berlinger. Disturbing, character-based portrait of mid ‘70s serial killer Ted Bundy as culled from the memoir of his longtime girlfriend. Zac Ephron eerily channels the killer's twisted, unsuspecting charisma.

    Exceptionally disappointed Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile is a docu-drama about Ted Bundy and not a history of queer-coded super villains.

    Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile falls into the usual pitfalls of biopics on famous serial killers. It feels like it's too busy trying to re-create archival footage, and dramatizing well known events. The movie being based off of the biography written by the real Liz Kendall... (1/3)

    I never quite realised what a talented actor Jim Parsons is. Ok, I saw him in Big Bang Theory and in Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile. And now in Spoiler Alert and usually when someone had a role like Sheldon they can do whatever they want, that character will always be there. -

    It’s safe to say that Zac Effron wasn’t chosen to play Ted Bundy for the same reasons that Charlize Theron was cast as Aileen Wournos. He can’t act, but then he doesn’t need to; he looks the part even if he can’t be the part. #ExtremelyWickedShockinglyEvilandVile #MovieReview #Drama #Biopic #Movie https://ninetypercentcrapmoviereviews.wordpress.com/2022/12/02/extremely-wicked-shockingly-evil-and-vile/

    I mean, I know Ted Bundy was the protagonist... but I got the strong feeling he was the good guy in this. Honestly, as in, that wasn't a sarcastic bit, they try and make him heroic. And yeah, the title suggests something: "Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile" but it doesn't achieve what it suggests, this is a Ted Bundy story if it was made by pre-woke Disney, and he was the charming prince. The Serial Killer part is muted to the point where the viewer you think the writer actually…

    It's safe to say that Zac Effron wasn't cast to play Ted Bundy for the same reasons that landed Charlize Theron the role of Aileen Wournos. He can't act, but then he doesn't need to; he looks the part even if he can’t be the part — and he needn’t be it, either; unlike Monster, this movie makes no attempt to probe into Bundy's psyche. If one is looking for any motive, reason, or explanation for his crimes, one will not find them here. Who or what exactly is supposed to be "wicked" and "vile"?…

    An interesting approach to the story, but the tone is poorly managed. Worth seeing for Efron's performance, though >I get very, very angry and indignant. I don't like being locked up for something I didn't do, and I don't like my liberty taken away, and I don't like being treated like an animal, and I don't like people walking around and ogling me like I'm some sort of weirdo, because I'm not. - Ted Bundy; Interview in Garfield County Jail, Colorado (May 15, 1977) > Those of us who are, who…

    I think it's a hard line to walk, making a biopic about a genuine real-world serial killer and his wife, having said serial killer take up a pretty massive chunk of that biopic's screentime, and still not have it look as if you're trying to paint said serial killer as sympathetic - when you're a main character, when it's your story, you are the protagonist, and when the protagonist is a monster, that's... Yeah, that's a hard line to walk. And I think it's walked here falteringly. There's some…
