Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile
With Lily Collins, Haley Joel Osment, Kaya Scodelario, John Malkovich, Jim Parsons, Jeffrey Donovan, Angela Sarafyan, Brian Geraghty, Dylan Baker and Zac Efron as Ted Bundy, Joe Berlinger has amassed quite the ensemble for his bonafide hyped up return to narrative form. While some of docu features have been critically acclaimed, most portions of his filmography managed to stare evil in the eye and Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile will be no different. Production began in January one year ago to this date.
Gist: Told through the perspective of Elizabeth Kloepfer (Collins), Bundy’s longtime girlfriend, who went years denying the accusations against Bundy but ultimately turned him in to the police. Only nearing his execution, when Bundy began talking about his extensive and heinous murders, did Kloepfer, and the rest of the world, learn the true scope of his numerous and grisly crimes.
Release Date/Prediction: Selected for the 2019 Sundance Film Festival in the Premieres section, this is having its world premiere tomorrow at the Eccles theatre – this will have buyers lined up around the tent corner.
