Ted Bundy: Autoportrait d'un tueur

Slick production value. I learned some things I didn't know, but I would have liked more actual audio of the interviews. He had 100 hours of tape but you hear only the tiniest fraction of it in the documentary.

Also, if you watch on Neflix, there's a podcast available of an interview with the author where the interviewer goes off the deep end with some new-age-"woke"-social-justice nonsensical buzzwords. Yes, Ted Bundy benefited by being white, but that's only the beginning. He was white AND clean-cut, intelligent, college educated, careful about how he came across, etc. If Bundy was some grungy long-haired tatooed guy, white or not, he would not have evaded punishment for so long. But if you like hearing words like "identity" , "intersectional", and "whiteness" bandied about as though they have any practical application to the real world, by all means give it a listen.

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.

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.

I first learned of Ted Bundy when I was studying criminal psychology and taking abnormal psychology classes in college. I've read numerous books and have seen just about every documentary about Ted Bundy, but this one really takes the cake. Of all the serial killers I studied in school Ted Bundy was the one I spent the most time researching because of how heinous his crimes were and the fact that he managed to postpone his execution for nearly 10 years by proclaiming his innocence and turning his trial into a media frenzy.

Initially I wasn't expecting much because I had just about seen everything and knew everything there was to know about the man, but I was shocked to find out there was a lot of unseen footage and tape recordings I had never encountered before during my research. This is by far the most informative and descriptive documentary about Ted Bundy. It will give you chills and an insight into the mind of one of the most evil murderers to ever walk this Earth.

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.
