Conversando com um Serial Killer: Ted Bundy

Watching this docu-series, I hadn't done any research on Ted Bundy at all. So I essentially went in blind. I watched all 4 episodes back to back in one sitting because I couldn't believe what I was watching. For only happening a few decades ago, it blows my mind how far we have come in the way we detain and process criminals for trial. This man, was disgusting and psychotic, but also very strategic and smart. Knowing some human beings are capable of things like this, gives me nightmares. After finishing the show, I turned on Resident Evil 2 and STILL went to bed more scared knowing Ted Bundy was an ACTUAL, REAL person.

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.

Chances are, just like me, you are watching this because you love crime docs and somewhat interested in serial killers. This is by far one of the best documentaries out there based on this topic.

It's all in chronological order, it has so many various tape recordings and film footage of Ted himself, it interviews so many different people associated with him. It just overall covers absolutely all basis you would want.

Obviously being interested in serial killers I knew a little on Ted Bundy, but this 4 part documentary added so much more information and went into real depth into the parts that I did know about him. If you are into this kind of thing, just like me, or you want a new documentary or Netflix series to watch I highly recommend this. 4 episodes as well so isn't overly dragged out like a lot of recent crime series have been.

Must watch and highly recommend.

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.

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.
