Ted Bundy: Falling for a Killer

I have watched a lot of documentaries about Ted Bundy, What made this so different is that it focused on Ted's victims including Elizabeth and Molly Kendall, Ted's long term girlfriend and her daughter. I appreciated the filmmakers setting the story within its historical context. I especially appreciated hearing from Elizabeth & Molly Kendall. I have often wondered what they were thinking and feeling and I have so much compassion and appreciation for what they went through as well as the families and friends of of the young women Bundy murdered. All were victims of him and as a woman I think we are well served to know how men like Ted use our kindness and willingness to help against us as they prey upon us. I was left thinking a lot about that time as I was only a year or two younger than his most of his Washington State victims and how culture shaped our attitudes, behavior p, fears and expectations. My father was a sociopath and I understand all too well what havoc they wrought on those who come into contact with them. Thank you to the Kendalls and all those who shared their stories. I wish them peace and happiness. I think it would be great if someone would make a documentary on misogyny. It is so prevalent in our culture and it is not well understood.

I don't know why anyone would give this series a low rating. It's remarkable, the intelligence, insights, and self-examination that the victims reveal, especiall the woman and her daughter who were his "family" partners. The daughter is the winner.

The documentary was something else. From the brand new interviews to unseen photos to new crime details. Elizabeth "Liz" Kendall and her daughter, Molly Kendall, were simply remarkable and brave to finally share their stories. They have been laying low for almost 40 years and have not talked about Ted Bundy not even once. They have respected the victims and families but it was their time to share their story and I was so glad they did. I can't even imagine what they have gone through, they were the ones that lived. They were so professional and soft spoken through this entire documentary. It gave the viewer a complete different view on Ted Bundy. Thank you for your brave voices to all the brand new interviewers that came forward for this documentary. The music choice and open intro was right on the money too. It set the scene and I couldn't help but binge-watch every single episode the day the documentary came out. Thank you again for such a wonderful documentary.

True, the story revolved around Bundy and the wrath he wrought upon women over 50 years ago in the States.

Flippant or not, the real story to me was about the dignity, sorrow and resurrection of the women Bundy imposed himself upon.

When you look at how the men in this series faired, compared to the women that suffered unimaginable horror in their lives as compared to the men...well, I look up to the heavens and thank God for the gift that he gave us:

Women.

So much stronger than we men and resolute.

There are rare times you take stock of life from entertainment, this was one of those times for me and a reminder of the blessings that women bring to life.

As for Bundy, he got what was coming to him other than, his ending was too swift for my liking. More agony and pain, prolonged, would have made me happy - see that smug, self-important, above it all smile of his wiped clean from his face slowly and deliberately. Unforgivable what he did, an animal has more compassion than he.

Lastly, thank you Amazon Prime for letting me see the worst and best of humanity. Sobering to say the very least.

Some harp on feminist messaging. I didn't see that at all. How could you not get women's perspective when 100% of this serial perp's victims were female? Bundy personified evil. Beyond sick, the devil if there is one. I've been around sick, evil before so I'm kind of fascinated by it's aspects and impacts. I highly recommend this. Very well done.
