Ted Bundy is a 2002 independent biographical crime-thriller film that was written and directed by Matthew Bright, and co-written by Stephen Johnston. The film, which had a limited theatrical release, is a sardonic dramatization of the sexual homicides of Ted Bundy, an American serial killer and necrophiliac who murdered and raped dozens of women and girls in the United States during the 1970s. It stars Michael Reilly Burke as Bundy and Boti Bliss as Bundy's girlfriend, Lee.

Plot

In 1974, Theodore "Ted" Robert Bundy appears to be a typical, well-adjusted student at the Seattle University School of Law who works part-time at a local crisis center. Unbeknown to his family and friends, however, Ted is a sociopathic, satyrid misogynist. After engaging in voyeurism, petty thefts, and drug abuse, Ted builds up the courage to commit his first lust murder of one of his hotline callers. After this point, Bundy breaks into the homes of his young, female victims, or lures them to his car by faking disabilities or by impersonating a police officer. Ted then incapacitates and abducts his victims, drives them to a strategic location, and rapes and murders them. Achieving countrywide infamy, Ted eludes the authorities because he has extensive knowledge of law enforcement and legal tactics from school, including his ability to avoid fitting offender profiles. Law enforcement authorities, however, have Ted's facial composites and have learned his nickname from witnesses.
