If you're reading, it is very likely that you know who Zac Efron is. We know and love Zefron from the genius nostalgic High School Musical trilogy. I actually think that Zac Efron is a really good actor, and have enjoyed his other films outside of the HSM franchise (The Greatest Showman). And, yes, he is the physical pinnacle of perfection.

It's so weird. He's hot in EVERYTHING. As a high schooler? Hot. With cringey 2007 hair? Hot. With a beard? Hot. In a suit? So hot that I am melted into a physical puddle.

But as much as I love Zefron, I have extremely mixed feelings about his upcoming role in the film, "Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile". The film comes out sometime in late 2019 but premiered at the Sundance Film Festival this past weekend. Directed by Joe Berlinger, it is a thriller about Ted Bundy, an American serial killer in 1969.

If you do not know who Ted Bundy is, and if you do not feel like googling him, just know that he was an extremely messed up individual. He sexually assaulted and killed an upwards of young thirty women in the 1970s and possibly earlier. The crimes shocked America and caused young women everywhere to fear for their lives. He denied the claims for about a DECADE, but then finally confessed and served time in jail until his death in 1989.

The weird thing about Ted Bundy is that he was a really normal guy, and so it was even more shocking when the police realized he was the suspect. He was well mannered, good looking, and seemed like a stereotypical American family man who had a wife and daughter. (OH, also, his wife had ZERO idea he was a serial killer. LIKE WHAT?? Imagine being married to a serial killer.)

So when I heard that Zac Efron was playing Ted Bundy, I was initially excited because I love him as an actor. But, then I noticed that people were beginning to sexualize and romanticize Ted Bundy, because of the personal connection that people associate with Zac Efron. I know I have to see the movie before I make a defined opinion on the subject, but I already feel like casting Zac Efron was the wrong move for Joe Berlinger.

I understand that his charm and good looks are what made Bundy so dangerous, but still, something rubs me the wrong way about the casual comedic tone of the trailer. I know that Zac Efron will probably do a good job with the role, but the aura around the movie that some people are giving off is really making me doubt wanting to see the film.

I just really hope that Ted Bundy's extreme wickedness as a human being is accurately portrayed. I also hope that the feelings of the family members who suffered from having loved ones taken from them were considered and that Hollywood just isn't getting financial gain off of the fact that a hot actor is playing a serial killer.
