Anna Kendrick he made his big directorial debut with a Dating Game serial killer movie titled The woman of the hour. The film premiered at the Toronto Film Festival and Netflix acquired the film for around $11 million!
Kendrick also stars in the fact-based thriller, which tells the “stranger-than-fiction story of a young woman who actually won a date on The Dating Game with a man who turned out to be a notorious serial killer. Rodney Alcala was convicted of killing at least eight women, but investigators believe the number could be as high as 130. The handsome and charming Alcala lured women by posing as a photographer looking for models. He had previously been a registered sex offender and was recently released from prison. Somehow he was accepted into the popular daytime Dating Game, in which a woman asked questions of three bachelors hiding behind a wall.
Kendrick takes on the role of contestant, Cheryl Bradshaw, who ended up choosing the killer played by Daniele Zovatto. He turned out to be such a creepy stalker that she never went on the date.
I’ve heard about this story and it sounds like it will make an interesting movie. The screenplay was written by Ian McDonald and Kendrick produced with Roy Lee.
