Trailer For New Docuseries TED BUNDY: FALLING FOR A KILLER Tells the Story From the Perspective of the Women Around Him
We’ve got a trailer for all you murderinos out there to check out for the new Prime docu-series Ted Bundy: Falling For a Killer. While the streamers have been a little Ted Bundy heavy in the last year with the releases of Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile and The Ted Bundy Tapes on Netflix, this doc takes a new look at the subject. Here’s the synopsis for the series:
Ted Bundy: Falling for a Killer is a five-part docuseries that reframes infamous serial killer Ted Bundy’s crimes from a female perspective, uncovering the disturbing and profound way in which his pathological hatred of women collided with the culture wars and feminist movement of the 1970s, culminating in what is perhaps the most infamous true crime saga of our time.
The series is anchored by the story of Bundy’s longtime girlfriend Elizabeth Kendall and her daughter Molly, who, after nearly 40 years of silence, are sharing their experiences with new unsettling details about Bundy, the inconceivable pull he had on women, and an abundant archive of never-before-seen family photos.
They are joined by a chorus of female voices, including survivors of Bundy’s attacks – some of whom are stepping forward for the first time – with chilling accounts that will forever change the Bundy narrative and provoke a discussion around gender politics that hauntingly resonates today.
So we finally get to hear the story from the perspective of the woman who had the most to lose when he was caught, his long-time girlfriend Elizabeth Kendall, who was raising her daughter alongside him. The show also talks the political climate and gender shift of the time, and how women were affected by the terror they were faced with when the murders were taking place.
This looks like a very fresh and fascinating look at the story we are all pretty familiar with. I’ll be tuning in! Check out the trailer below, and watch Ted Bundy: Falling For a Killer on Amazon Prime starting January 31st, 2020.
