Part of the reason infamous serial killer Ted Bundy continues to be a source of fascination among true crime buffs is that he simply didn’t seem like the type of person to commit the atrocities he was accused (and convicted) of. Those closest to Bundy, his friends and lovers, were stunned, even as stacks of evidence mounted against him.

We’re given this insider’s perspective in the upcoming Bundy biopic, Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile; the film will take place from the point-of-view of the murderer’s then-girlfriend, a woman who simply couldn’t wrap her mind around Bundy’s crimes. Today, we’re getting our first look at the film’s star, Zac Efron, as Ted Bundy—and the resemblance is uncanny. Have a look below.

Synopsis:
