ZODIAC(2007)
Though a subject matter that I'm not really drawn to, I
none-the-less found this pretty interesting! All about the
Zodiac killer in California and a man's obsession to find
the perp! Several great actors, but no difinitive answers
are arrived to, as the actual murderer wasn't finally
discovered< until 2021!! B-
From a reviewer at IMDb.com:
On July 4, 1969, a killer shoots a couple on lovers' lane in
Vallejo, California. The boy survives. The San Francisco Chronicle
receives a letter from the Zodiac killer to print his letters
with symbols. Reporter Paul Avery (Robert Downey, Jr) is on
the case with the help of eager cartoonist Robert Graysmith
(Jake Gyllenhaal). The brutal murders continue moving to San
Francisco. San Francisco police detectives Dave Toschi (Mark
Ruffalo) and William Armstrong (Anthony Edwards) are given
the case. Other police include Jack Mulanax (Elias Koteas)
in Vallejo and Detective Ken Narlow (Donal Logue) in Napa.
Defense lawyer Melvin Belli (Brian Cox) appearing on TV gets
a call from the supposed killer.
This starts off as an interesting serial killer mystery. The
attacks are horrifically shown. The couple forced to be tied
up and stabbed is probably the most memorable. However the
movie turns into something deeper. This is not another serial
killer movie like the endless TV shows that populate modern
networks. It may not even be about the central characters.
This is an immersive experience living with the serial killer
always on the mind. The Zodiac killer is just out there in
this world. It's fascinating in its dark undertones and the
lack of flashiness. - SnoopyStyle
