No Man Of God's Amber Sealey and Extremely Wicked's Joe Berlinger are having a Ted Bundy feud - The A.V. Club

Berlinger was apparently unhappy with comments Sealey made during the promotion of No Man Of God that he thought were pointed at his films Conversations With A Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes, and the Zac Efron-starring dramatization Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil And Vile, and said as much, accusing her in the lengthy letter of “tearing down my work to promote yours.”.

Sealey subsequently posted the email onto her Instagram, along with an invitation to Berlinger to come see her film (and her own note that, “This felt like you were just trying to make me feel shitty right before my screening”).

She also stated, in a conversation with Variety, that she’s never made specific mention of Berlinger’s films in interviews, although she has stated that most other films about Bundy “glorify” the killer, telling Refinery29, “I don’t personally believe that any of the movies that have already been made up until now have really shown the real Bundy.” She also said that at least some Bundy films—a tradition stretching back to 1986's The Deliberate Stranger, with Mark Harmon as the then-yet-to-be-executed murderer—made him out to be a “male model.” (If that was a specific dig at Efron’s portrayal in Extremely Wicked, though, it was left to subtext.)
