Natural Born Killers?

First off I couldn't help but think of Olive Stones over-the-top "Natural Born Killers". It must have been loosely based on this movie. I am not from Nebraska but I caught the scenery problem, too. But I liked the movie. It was much better than Dahmer or Ed Gein movies. Certainly there were some errors, but it worked for me getting inside there heads. As far as Ted Bundy movies the earlier version with Mark Harmon was insightful into the sociopath that he was. Off the track! I saw this on one of the movie channels and I would watch it again.

There are loads of films based on Charles Starkweather and his exploits!
They include Badlands, True Romance and Natural Born Killers

I dont agree with his glorification especially in the film Badlands but all three films are still very good

not to mention kalifornia with david duchovney(sp) and brad pitt.

yes, i am almost certain that the 1994 movie, Natural Born Killers, is based on the 2004 movie, Starkweather.

Oliver Stone knew about the movie ten years before it was made, then pre-emptively ripped it off.

based on the story of starkweather yes, this movie, no. if anything, alot of the techniques used in starkweather reeked of NBK.

I like that. Pre-emptively ripped it off. I'd love to see how it would have been if Tarantino had done it.
