The charming and campy footage is interspersed with haunting clips of Alcala with his victims.The movie is described as a “stranger-than-fiction story of an aspiring actress in 1970s Los Angeles and a serial killer in the midst of a yearslong murder spree, whose lives intersect when they’re cast on an episode of The Dating Game.”The film’s synopsis reads: “In the 1970s Rodney Alcala went on a murder spree, luring women by posing as a photographer looking for models. “Though already a registered sex offender and recently released from prison, he infamously appeared on The Dating Game, a show that introduced a set of three bachelors each week, hidden from view as a woman asked them amusing questions before choosing a winner to go on an all-expenses-paid trip with her… “While this confrontation serves as the spine of the film, we’re taken backward and forward through time, exploring Alcala’s murders, with a performance by Daniel Zovatto that captures the disquieting hubris of a man who knows he’s operating in a world too skewed to catch him.” The movie also stars Daniel Zovatto, Nicolette Robinson, Tony Hale, Kathryn Gallagher, and Kelley Jakle. The script was written by Ian MacAllister McDonald.The movie will be released on October 18th.
