RLJE Films has acquired the distribution rights for. No Man of God, the crime/thriller based on the story of US criminal Ted Bundy.
Written by C. Robert Cargill (Doctor Strange) and directed by Amber Sealey (A Plus D), No Man of God is played by Elijah Wood (Maniac - 2012, Come to Daddy), here as an FBI analyst involved in the serial killer case.
Based on transcripts of conversations that took place, during the period from 1984 to 1989, between FBI analyst Bill Hagmaier and Ted Bundy, the film is set primarily in one location namely an interrogation room, shedding light, in particular, on the complicated relationship between the two men during the serial killer's final years on death row.
No Man of God is produced by Elijah Wood along with Daniel Noah, Lisa Whalen and Kim Sherman. Scott Derrickson, Bill Hagmaier, Stacy Jorgensen and Mark Ward, on the other hand, are the executive producers.
The film will have its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival next month and will debut in U.S. theaters in August.
Ted Bundy would lure his prey near colleges and universities and then rape and kill them. The criminal used to return to the crime scene to have intercourse with the decomposed bodies of his victims and used some anatomical parts (the heads) as trophies.
The man was executed in the electric chair in 1989. Before his execution, the multiple murderer confessed to being the mastermind of 30 murders carried out between 1974 and 1878.
