Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile
This biographical crime thriller about one of America’s most notorious serial killers, Ted Bundy, is based on the memoir The Phantom Prince: My Life with Ted Bundy, penned by Bundy’s former girlfriend Elizabeth Kendall.
Teen Choice Award winner Zac Efron (High School Musical, Hairspray, The Greatest Showman) plays Bundy in a People’s Choice nominated performance Variety calls, “controlled, magnetic, audacious, committed, and eerily right.”
Oscar nominee John Malkovich plays the presiding judge at Bundy’s trial, with Kaya Scodelario (Crawl, Pirates of the Caribbean, Maze Runner) as Bundy’s wife Carole Ann Boone. The cast also includes Golden Globe nominee Lily Collins (Les Misérables, Rules Don’t Apply); Oscar nominee Haley Joel Osment (Future Man, The Sixth Sense); Metallica frontman James Hetfield and Golden Globe winner Jim Parsons (Sheldon in Big Bang Theory).
Nominated for the 2019 People’s Choice Award for Favourite Drama Movie, Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile is directed by Oscar-nominated, Peabody- and Emmy-winning nonfiction filmmaker Joe Berlinger (Brother’s Keeper, Paradise Lost, Under African Skies).
