Summary
Reviewers say 'Falling for a Killer' offers a unique perspective on Ted Bundy's crimes, focusing on victims, families, and 1970s culture. Praised for giving voice to victims and survivors, it contrasts with typical Bundy-centric narratives. The inclusion of Bundy's girlfriend and daughter adds a personal touch.

I have watched a lot of documentaries about Ted Bundy, What made this so different is that it focused on Ted's victims including Elizabeth and Molly Kendall, Ted's long term girlfriend and her daughter. I appreciated the filmmakers setting the story within its historical context. I especially appreciated hearing from Elizabeth & Molly Kendall. I have often wondered what they were thinking and feeling and I have so much compassion and appreciation for what they went through as well as the families and friends of of the young women Bundy murdered. All were victims of him and as a woman I think we are well served to know how men like Ted use our kindness and willingness to help against us as they prey upon us.
I was left thinking a lot about that time as I was only a year or two younger than his most of his Washington State victims and how culture shaped our attitudes, behavior p, fears and expectations. My father was a sociopath and I understand all too well what havoc they wrought on those who come into contact with them. Thank you to the Kendalls and all those who shared their stories. I wish them peace and happiness. I think it would be great if someone would make a documentary on misogyny. It is so prevalent in our culture and it is not well understood.
Some harp on feminist messaging. I didn't see that at all. How could you not get women's perspective when 100% of this serial perp's victims were female? Bundy personified evil.
Beyond sick, the devil if there is one. I've been around sick, evil before so I'm kind of fascinated by it's aspects and impacts. I highly recommend this. Very well done.
True, the story revolved around Bundy and the wrath he wrought upon women over 50 years ago in the States.
Flippant or not, the real story to me was about the dignity, sorrow and resurrection of the women Bundy imposed himself upon.
When you look at how the men in this series faired, compared to the women that suffered unimaginable horror in their lives as compared to the men...well, I look up to the heavens and thank God for the gift that he gave us:
Women.
So much stronger than we men and resolute.
There are rare times you take stock of life from entertainment, this was one of those times for me and a reminder of the blessings that women bring to life.
As for Bundy, he got what was coming to him other than, his ending was too swift for my liking. More agony and pain, prolonged, would have made me happy - see that smug, self-important, above it all smile of his wiped clean from his face slowly and deliberately. Unforgivable what he did, an animal has more compassion than he.
Lastly, thank you Amazon Prime for letting me see the worst and best of humanity. Sobering to say the very least.

I've watched countless serial killer documentaries, and read countless books, and *this* is how it should be done. Bundy is the story, but he is not the narrative. Rather, he is the common thread that unites the testimonies of victims, survivors, and their families, and it is they who are at the forefront, telling us their experiences in their own words. It's heartbreaking, and compelling, and absolutely top-notch film-making.
What you notice most with The Bundy cases and what was addressed correctly by the Judge in the main trial was the total waste of humanity experienced. Ted Bundy had choices. He wasn't a street X Con angry at what ever!!! He was maticulous and smart. I will not comment on appearance. He had decided to end futures and no young woman was safe.
Falling for a Killer focusses on the woman involved and rightfully so.
You will cry with Karen Sparks. ..Her testimony is the worst I have ever heard . You will cry with Elizabeth Kendall and her amazing daughter, The two Ted Bundy spent most of his original time with.
This is not feminist properganda. This is a group of amazing people finally answering against the worst Serial killer of all time. ...A person who wanted to take light. The woman here have to praised. They don't attack they just say what was done wrong to them...very graceful. Ted was the worst of the worst.The Bundy tapes have nothing on this achievement.
A must watch on Prime Video.
