I expected “Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile” to glamorize Ted Bundy. It didn’t. It did something more nuanced and characteristic of good art: It made viewers sympathize not with its antagonist, but with the people who were blinded from his horror.

It’s no secret that Americans are obsessed with true crime, and nowhere is that more evident than the recent slew of Ted Bundy content. There’s the Netflix docu-series, the ABC documentary, and the Netflix film starring Zac Efron and Lily Collins: “Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile.”
