Critical response
[edit]Dread Central's Scott Foy gave the film a score of two out of five, likening it to a reenactment segment of an episode of America's Most Wanted; he criticized Feifer's writing and direction, and wrote that Nemec "gives it his all but always looks entirely too old for the role, laughably so during the scenes portraying Bundy during his high school and early college years."[2] Tyler Foster of DVD Talk characterized Nemec's performance as "wildly uneven", and wrote that, "With a little more verve, [the film] might have been entertaining in a late-night-cable kind of way, but it ends up being a meandering waste."[3]
