Ted Bundy: Autoportrait d'un tueur

I can't believe I've just watched all the episodes in one day - it's already 4AM. Horrifying, fascinating, and absolute dark. You won't able to stop watching it. I've read a bunch of an article about him a years ago before I've watched this documentary. What he did was horrifying, and the worst - I did read other serial killers but for me he is the worst of the worst. We, as an audience can understand about the horror of him, the other side of him, how dark the time when it happened - and this guy don't deserve any credit at all. I felt goosebumps just saw him smile. Very well put, and descriptive. But between this documentary and wikipedia - the wikipedia describes more about how he did all the horrifying things than the documentary. People may find this documentary boring because Ted won't tell his secret at all in his tapes - he was very careful. This documentary can't tell how scary this man was but if we're going deeply into that - I think I only can watch one eps. Recommended.

All the facts are laid out chronologically. This documentary draws you in. I watched all four episodes in one sitting. More than once I felt goosebumps at the depravity of a man who seemed so normal, yet was downright evil. I have seen many Netflix docs. This one is well worth a watch.

There are so many myths surrounding Ted Bundy, but this documentary stuck to the facts and made a compelling case. I'm embarressed to admit I even found Ted charming but he is sick, twisted, and dark; a real life Lucifer. What a metaphor for pure evil in the appearance of charm, even handsomeness. VERY interesting watch.

Sometimes these documentaries can have too much style and over edit. But this did not. Everything that was done did not distraction from the story or test your patience.

I am fairly knowledgeable about Bundy already. I read "The Only Living Witness," years and years ago. In addition to being interested in this kinda stuff anyway, I even live in Tacoma and went to the same high school as Bundy. Of course there are many rumors about where his locker was, haha. I've seen his childhood home, my dad went to school with him and my mom worked with his Mom at UPS.

Seeing the actual people that were integral in the Bundy investigation was nice. Up until this point I had only read things, so seeing footage of Bundy and names that I've only read was nice. And seeing not only old footage of America but Seattle and Tacoma was nice. I even got to see my childhood home in Ruston and the smoke stack.

There are a few gruesome pictures but nothing really bad. A face down bloody body and some sessional skeletal remains.

Really the most fascinating part is that you can see how people believed Bundy. He doesn't come across as fake or smarmy. Before it was over, since Bundy maintained his Innocents for so long I even wondered if there was a possibility that he was innocent. Of course this is just like wondering if you're in the matrix and you realize how stupid you sound after 15 seconds.

I think the most important thing to learn from Bundy is that crazy people don't look or act crazy. And that your childhood doesn't make you a killer. There's just something wrong in their brain.

This was a pretty solid documentary. Nice and stylized production. I think it's very noteworthy that they were able to get the investigators, detectives, attorneys, agents, etc. that they did for the documentary. It's also cool how they put together all the press from across the states and counties about Bundy. On this note it was quite thorough. However, the documentary never hits got into the details of Bundy's murders; it felt like there was some sort of lack of depth in that aspect. It's not that I wanted to relish in the details of the ways he carried what he did and on his life. But for all the times it was repeated what a downright monster he was, the documentary didn't really give the true reasons why. (Perhaps our of respect for the victims? I don't know). Heck, even the Wikipedia page has an immense amount of detail on his life.
