8/10
A chilling story, brilliantly told

For anyone who has not seen "The Deliberate Stranger", it's well worth your while to catch it. Mark Harmon gives the performance of his career as the intelligent, handsome, charming, violent and murderous psychopathic serial killer, Ted Bundy, who left a trail of dead bodies across the USA.

I give high marks to the film for managing to make it gripping and horrifying while being unable (due to this being made for TV)to show or discuss the graphic and horrendous details of the murders themselves. It would have been easy to make this movie way more sensationalistic, considering the number of victims. Thankfully for families of the victims, great restraint was shown in that department.

This movie is best watched after reading the very well done book by the same name, written by Richard L. Larsen who explains the meaning of the title.

Great movie, but don't watch it if you're alone at night!
