The film on the serial killer is narrated through the perspective of his girlfriend Elizabeth Kloepfer, who struggled to accept the reality of her boyfriend’s true nature.

Actor Zac Efron's transformation into notorious serial killer Ted Bundy is absolutely terrifying in his new film 'Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile'. Netflix gave us a glimpse of Efron's character as it premiered the film's first trailer ahead of its debut on the streaming service in May. 

The film, a thriller, follows the life of Bundy and is narrated through the perspective of his girlfriend, Elizabeth Kloepfer, who struggled to accept the reality of her boyfriend’s true nature.

Kloepfer's character is played by 30-year-old Lily Collins, while John Malkovich plays Edward Cowart, the presiding judge at Bundy’s 1979 trial in Florida who sentenced the killer to death.

The film opens May 3 in select theaters and on Netflix.
