Bundy



Has its moments...
Not one of the best serial killer flicks out there but "Bundy: A Legacy of Evil" has its moments. I thought Corin Nemec did an admirable job as Ted Bundy as did Jen Nikolaisen as his girlfriend Stephanie. I loved the scene in the restaurant after they rekindle their romance. The scene in the dorm with the two sleeping coeds is definitely the most gruesome scene in the movie, but this film missed out with a soundtrack that simply didn't fit and some hokey acting by others (the sheriff who arrests him in the desert, the warden and the officer on the stand). Don't get me wrong, this is a must for those who enjoy serial killer flicks. It is much better than many...but not as good as some. 3 stars.

Ever since establishing himself with the hilarious teen comedy, Parker Lewis Can't Lose, Corky Nemec has turned to the dark side and seems to thrive on playing these twisted evil men. The former teen idol is terrific and gives a really strong performance, but it was the only thing of note in this film. After introducing us to Bundy, the writers stop focusing on the man and focus on his crimes. For the final hour of this film that's all you see, until a...
