Anybody watch this documentary? Crazy crazy story

I have a friend that went on a double date with Bundy and his girlfriend while in college in Utah

Watched the first episode. It did a good job of putting me to sleep.

should have been a podcast

Watched it this past weekend.

I knew he was bad but I've never read or watched anything that captured the enormity of his crimes as that documentary did.

Bundy was so impulsive and out of control. He was a smart guy when he wasn't acting on his violent urges, but lost all intelligence in the heat of the moment.

There are stories about him just flipping a switch during conversations and interviews where his eyes turn black and evil just sets in. Makes me think about Ed Norton in Primal Fear when his "other personality" would click on (not gonna spoil that one).

I'm pretty enamored with serial killers and their psychology and crimes, so this Bundy docuseries didn't reveal anything I didn't already know, but it was still a very interesting watch.

And I agree, he would've totally been caught after the first 2-3 murders in 2019.

My favorite part of the docuseries that I hadn't seen before was when he was making the first responding officer repeat his account of how he found the bodies in the Chi-O house. You could tell Bundy was getting off on hearing the detailed descriptions from someone else. The judge had to actually tell him to move on.
