One of Ted Bundy's Survivors Has Some Thoughts About Zac Efron Playing Him
Zac Efron's turn as serial killer Ted Bundy in Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile is freaking the entire internet out—and now one of his survivors is weighing in.
Kathy Kleiner Rubin was attacked by Bundy in her sorority at Florida State University in 1978. So, how does she feel about Zac's portrayal of the man who tried to kill her? Surprisingly at peace.
"I don't have a problem with people looking at it, and as long as they understand that what they're watching wasn't a normal person," she told TMZ. "I believe that in order to show him exactly the way he was, it's not really glorifying him, but it's showing him, and when they do say positive and wonderful things about him... that's what they saw, that's what Bundy wanted you to see."
Rubin added that "The movie does glorify it more than I think it should be. But like I said I think everyone should see it and understand him as what he was even when he was the perfect son. I think hopefully it will make women [...] be more aware of their surroundings and be cautious. He had different tactics that he used for people to help him get in cars or do things, and in your gut, if you just feel that something doesn't feel right, just say no."
Find out more about Bundy's real life here, and in the meantime...

Ted Bundy: Who was the serial killer Zac Efron plays in new film?

Warning: This article contains details about a serial killer’s actions, which you may find upsetting.
Zac Efron’s known for playing handsome, charming, leading men – and his latest film role is no exception.
But his character in Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile is a long way from the beaches of Baywatch.
He’s playing one of the most infamous serial killers in US history – Ted Bundy – in an adaptation of a book written by Elizabeth Kloepfer, Bundy’s girlfriend during his time killing.
And the film is on Netflix now.
What did Ted Bundy do?
Between February 1974 and February 1978 Ted Bundy murdered 30 women and has been linked to many more.
He would often approach women in public places, gain their trust with his charm or a fake injury, and then lure them to secluded areas and kill them.

Bundy’s crimes were recently the subject of a Netflix documentary, Conversations With A Killer
He kept trophies from his victims – including severed heads found in his apartment – and had sex with their bodies after the murders.
Bundy was first arrested in 1975 for kidnapping a woman, Carol DaRonch, and sentenced to up to 15 years in jail.
But in 1977 he escaped by jumping out of a prison library window.
He was recaptured for eight days and then escaped again – when he continued to kill until finally being caught in 1978.
Bundy remained behind bars until he was executed in 1989, aged 42.
What made Ted Bundy different?

Ted Bundy represented himself in court during his trials for multiple murders
Bundy managed to win the trust of his female victims, often by pretending he had broken bones and needed help with certain tasks.
It wasn’t just a fake cast that helped him gain their trust though – many have commented on his good looks and charm.
It’s since been debated whether his perceived good looks have received too much attention – with the brutal nature of his crimes and the memory of his victims ignored.
When the trailer for Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile first premiered, there were accusations that the film was “sexualising” a man who committed violent acts against women.
Kathy Kleiner Rubin, who survived a Bundy attack in 1978, believes the film “glorifies” Bundy “more than it should do” – but says people need to “understand him as what he was”.
“When they do say positive and wonderful things about him, that’s what they saw. That’s what Bundy wanted to be seen,” she told TMZ.
What’s the film about?
The film is about Ted Bundy’s crimes, home life and trial for the murder of 30 women in the 1970s.
That’s the number he confessed to – but it’s believed he killed many more.
Bundy’s story has been told many times before in films, documentaries and books, but this is the first time it’s been told on-screen from Elizabeth Kloepfer’s view.
She stuck by Bundy during the seventies, and he was a father figure to her daughter Molly.

The film focuses more on Ted Bundy’s personal life than his crimes
Elizabeth, who’s played by Lily Collins, met Ted Bundy in 1969 but it took her five years before she became suspicious of his behaviour.
That’s when things like a bowl of women’s underwear, bandages, and the knife he kept in his car tipped her off that something wasn’t right, and she reported him to the police.
But she says there wasn’t enough evidence at that point for officers to investigate.
Her suspicions also didn’t slow their relationship – nor did the time Bundy tried to kill her with fumes from an open fire while she slept. Elizabeth didn’t fully cut ties with him until 1980.
What do the stars of the movie say?

Zac Efron is the star of the movie, but it’s told from the view of Lily Collins’ character
Zac Efron says he had “reservations” about taking on the role.
“I didn’t want to do it initially,” he said in an interview with the BBC’s Simon Mayo. “I didn’t want to glamourise a killer.”
Lily Collins has questioned whether another actor would have faced the same level of scrutiny as Zac has.
And she insists the movie focuses on Elizabeth more than Bundy’s crimes and evil nature, despite its title.
“You don’t see any imagery, you just hear about it and that’s what Liz would have been seeing,” Lily says.
“It’s only when Liz makes a discovery that the audience does as well.”
What do the critics say?
Early reviews of the movie have been mixed.
Empire magazine describes it as having a “goofy tone” and says neither Ted Bundy nor Elizabeth Kloepfer are explored fully.
But its review praises Zac Efron, saying “it’s the best work he’s ever done”.

Zac Efron’s performance in the film has been praised by critics
A review in the Metro criticises the lack of horror in the movie, saying that without it the film “risks becoming a prison escape caper”.
It adds that the only way to stop sensationalising Bundy’s crimes is to stop making movies about him.
And the Observer says it feels “dishonest” to tell Bundy’s story from Elizabeth’s point of view, because Bundy himself admitted he was unable to form relationships.
“Everyone is in on the con but Liz,” it says.

Why is Zac Efron a good choice to play the lead role, Ted Bundy?
Before I get into who Ted Bundy was, I want to focus on this question. Why is Zac Efron a good choice to play the lead role as Ted Bundy? On NME, the director of the movie, Joe Berlinger, said “First of all, I would have never hired Zac to play the role if he wasn't a fantastic actor.” He also said that Zac was his first choice for the role. Imagine having to play this role and getting into a similar mindset as Ted Bundy. Dedicated actors will do anything to make sure they can be the best of the best. Learning all of these interesting facts about Ted Bundy and learning how cruel he really was will also effect Zac Efron and his role. I think it will have a good effect though because it helps him to literally be Ted Bundy and realize how big of a role this truly is. In a later post, I hope to have knowledge and be able to share with you, about Zac Efrons experience while shooting for this movie.
Ted Bundy was born in November, 1946. He went to University of Washington and graduated with a degree in Psychology in 1972. Ted also showed interest in going to law school and got accepted. During this time, he became more confidently involved with social and political activities. While he was in college he met this beautiful, rich, and classy girl from California. You could say she was his dream girl. Many of Ted Bundy’s victims resemble her with long dark hair and he followed a pattern of raping them before beating them to death. Investigators seem to think he started killing women around 1974. Around this time, women in Oregon and Seattle started to go missing and in the fall of 1974 Ted moved to Utah to go to law school where women started disappearing there too. Ted Bundy was caught by getting pulled over in 1975 and the cops discovered a mask, rope, and handcuffs in his trunk. Later on, the cops tied him to kidnappings, murders, and rapes of the 36 women he admitted to but they think there are many more victims that haven’t been found. Women trusted him because of his good looks and charming personality. He would often lure him into his car by pretending to be injured, they trusted him because he looked normal. But he was indeed, not normal.
Zac Efron is most known for his role in the High School Musical movies. People are calling his upcoming movie, his “big break” because it’s such a different role than he usually plays. This time, he is playing a serial killer, Ted Bundy.
I think Zac Efron is a good choice because he has some of the same characteristics as Ted Bundy, as being good looking and charming. I also think Zac and Ted look alike. I want to talk about why people on social media are in disagreement of Zac Efron’s lead role. People are filled with rage because they think Zac Efron is sexualizing Ted Bundy and his actions but I disagree with this statement. I disagree with this statement because having a “sexy” actor like Zac, play Ted Bundy is exactly the point. Close friends, coworkers, and neighbors even said “he doesn’t look like the type of guy to do that, there’s no way.”
According to NME, one of Bundy’s survivors, Kathy Kleiner Rubin, said,
“I don’t have a problem with people looking at it, as long as they understand that what they’re watching wasn’t a normal person. I believe that in order to show him exactly the way he was, it’s not really glorifying him, it’s showing him.”
I completely agree with her statement because it is showing the true him. Ted Bundy was known for looking like he was trustworthy and a good guy simply because of his looks. If one of his victims that escaped him is saying that Zac Efron is showing his character and not glorifying it, who else’s opinion matters?

Ted Bundy’s Living Victim Tells Her Story
Every now and then, Kathy Kleiner Rubin likes to duck into a bookstore with her husband, Scott, and head straight for the true crime section. She’ll scan the shelves until she spots it: a book on the serial killer Ted Bundy. The Stranger Beside Me, maybe, or perhaps The Only Living Witness.
