Zodiac is coming to 4K this month
Was viewed as a flop when released, but now I think it’s arguably David Fincher’s masterpiece and the best San Francisco film alongside Vertigo. Despite its frequent use as a location in films, very few films depict San Francisco’s spookiness correctly- it’s a spooky place.
The new Netflix Zodiac film also comes out at the end of the month.

It flopped commercially. I remember my thugged out cousin from down south came to visit me at NYU and we went to see this lol. He suggested it. We went to theater at union square and this shit was excellent. I hadn’t even really heard about it. This is one of my favorite movies actually.

I slept with all of the lights on in my apartment the night I saw this in theaters.

People who post with the word "arguably" have blown too much wind up their own asses to have trustworthy judgment.

My favorite movie of all time.
“Zodiac” has much more humanity than Fincher’s other films. Interesting, considering the subject matter.
But I repeat-watch mostly for RDJ and Ruffalo.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Great movie. The opening scene with the Zodiac killer in that fucked up square hood with the sunglasses creeping behind the tree was nightmare fuel.

Was that the opening scene? I don’t think so.

R9, I think that was the second murder scene where the pre-law kid and his beautiful girlfriend were stabbed in the park.
Best movie ever. Loved RDJ and Chloe Sevigny.

R12, I'm happy someone remembered DL fave Chloe Sevigny is in this film. However, it was a thankless role.

I watch “Zodiac” every 4th of July.
(Also “A Few Good Men.”)

R14, thank you! I agree it was a thankless (and small) role; I respect how restrained Sevigny's performance was. She could have hammed it up to stand out, but she seemed to take the part for what it was.
Her performance, with its quiet and watchful but growing terror of the Zodiac, really amped up the spookiness of the whole movie.

I thought it was terrific. Very well done, don’t know why it didn’t do well at the box office, Maybe too many young people haven’t heard of Zodiac before.

There is no doubt in my mind about Leigh Allen being the Zodiac, maybe someone else licked the stamps for him, but that fucking guy is it.

That family the mother pawned her kids off on him and then didn't believe he was drugging the kids and molesting her daughter.

Yes, R25, and it was well-done and disturbing. I can't believe LE couldn't nail that guy.

Yes it's excellent. Watch it before you watch Zodiac if you ordered the 4K.
