Critical response

Dead Central gave it a mostly negative review, citing that it portrayed nothing of interest and resembled an episode of America's Most Wanted; they also said Nemec tried his best, but looked far too old.[1] What's On TV also praised Nemec and said the film "looks great, sounds great", but found it shallow compared to an earlier film about Bundy, The Deliberate Stranger starring Mark Harmon.[2] Horror Review gave it 2 1/2 out of 5, praising the film's look but criticizing its editing.[3] DVD Talk found it "meandering", neither good, nor bad enough to be kitschy fun.[4]
