THINK I had never heard the story in its entirety, so to learn what happened is to be that much more aware, not only for me, but as a generation that didn’t live through it. It’s important to know where you’ve been to know where you’re going.

THINK Stop trying to control how people react to things

THINK I've never found torture, suffering, rape and murder 'entertaining.'

THINK Disgusting. I click on past that Bundy documentary daily. Get rid of it, Netflix.

THINK Unless he was a leftist progressive

THINK Part about humanizing him. Mbe it's because i work in psych but i saw that as showing the 'face' that everyone saw & trusted & contrasting it with his words. We should all be aware of sociopaths. Not all of them kill but they'll easily rip your life to shreds if it suits them.

THINK Why? For thousands of years now You’ve commodified the victims of murder for your own selfish gastronomic ‘needs’

THINK It's history, it's horrible history, but it's in documentary format, not a sitcom or something. We could as easily say the same of Jack the Ripper or the Titanic movie (which was kinda terrible) - it's just more recent. Maybe i don't feel it as much because I wasnt alive yet.

THINK as seen on NBC in 1986

THINK I get what they're saying but wasn't the media at the time guilty of the same sort of sensationalized coverage? Aren't all movies about serial killers doing the same?

THINK Good grief do some news for a change.

THINK .... and what of Ted Kennedy?

THINK 'SOLELY for our entertainment' is where your argument collapses.

THINK Yes. I remember these crimes - here in Seattle and in Florida. Utterly horrific. Every person responsible for this shit should be completely ashamed. Garbage exploitation.

THINK Hollywood has done this for years. Why the outrage now?

THINK What the HELL is going on with the ' DEMOCRAT Party' ?

THINK But ok to kill a baby right before birth. 🙄. Who cares about Ted Bundy? I was at a convention last week with thousands of people and not one person mentioned Ted Bundy. FakeNews

The Director Of The Ted Bundy Biopic Says The Notorious Serial Killer Won't Be Romanticized'Bundy challenges all of our beliefs of what a serial killer should look like because he used his good looks and intelligence to hide his double life for far too long, and that is the focus of the film.' Yeah, they’re really uglying Zac Efron up for the role. The director really needs to honest with his audience. This is a straight up glamorization of a serial killer Well, they edited that trailer extremely poorly if their message was to NOT romanticize him.
