Efron plays the infamous serial killer. The Metallica frontman  portrays Officer Bob Hayward, based on the Utah highway patrolman, the first officer to arrest Bundy in 1975. He had discovered burglary tools in the car but had a hunch there was more to the story.

Extremely Wicked, Shocking Evil and Vile also features Lily Collins as Bundy’s longtime girlfriend. Also in the film are Jim Parsons, John Malkovich, Angela Sarafyan and Haley Joel Osment.
