I was just watching "Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile" (The Ted Bundy story). Now I heard part of what made Ted Bundy a successful serial killer was that he looked like a nice guy, and was unassuming.
The movie however made him look like a chick magnet who was wooing victims with a Dracula like power. Zac Efron (who plays him in the movie) is a cute guy, I'll give them that, but the real Ted Bundy looked like that uncle who no one would leave alone with the kids. I wouldn't call him good looking.

Was the movie just taking artistic liberties and dramatizing this?
Also, they made all of the women in the show extremely stupid. Like dumb little girls who couldn't think rationally because "aw, such a cute guy... I don't care that he's a serial killer, my panties are wet... tee hee hee" I know to some extent women can be like that (emotional over logical) but I'm guessing this was also exaggerated for movie purposes too, no(?) haha
