Little did she know, the man she chose to go on a date with - Rodney Alcala - was in fact a notorious serial killer. Alcala was part-way through a crime spree when he appeared on the show, having raped and assaulted multiple people and committed several murders.

Actors Daniel Zovatto and Tony Hale said their movie "Woman of the Hour," on Netflix Friday, honors Rodney Alcala's victims and not the so-called "Dating Game Killer."

"Woman of the Hour," directed by and starring Anna Kendrick, is based on the true story of serial killer Rodney Alcala competing on a dating show.
