A serial killer in the San Francisco Bay Area taunts police with his letters and cryptic messages. The four men most affected by the killer are San Francisco PD Homicide detectives David Toschi and William Armstrong, and the San Francisco Chronicle reporters Paul Avery and Robert Graysmith. Displays the psychological and emotional effects of the killings, as well as the endless procedural details of the investigation (handwriting experts, the '2500' suspects), the letters sent to the San Francisco Chronicle by Zodiac and the work of a 20+ year investigation that wears down and whittles away at any kind of normal life for Toshi and Graysmith.
Both men are obsessed with Zodiac and both pay for this obsession with the hard years and loves lost and never regained. Saw this on chestnut street. The personalities of the actors in this movie enlivened what must have been a dreary reality for those actually involved. So.the movie was entertaining beyond its merit as a whodunnit; at which, i believe, it failed. If you want details of what is behind this assertion of mine, read the book. The case made against the gentleman from the north bay would not have held up in court, hell, they did not even arrest him.
Then he died. Isn't it easier for those who do so to make a case against a dead man? And, as a side benefit, doesn't doing this reassure most of the public. Everybody wins, except for the dead suspect's reputation.
Santa Clara County prosecutors filed murder charges Thursday against a convicted killer who allegedly abducted a 19-year-old Cupertino woman from a department store parking lot and murdered her 28.
Next time you see a Jehovah's witness outside your library branch, ask them their expert opinion: does it bother anyone in the hereafter, to be slandered and libeled? People called up radio talk show (KGO's Jim Dunbar?) Part 2 of 2: -Well, that last guy was.
We have good solid communities out here in the North Bay. Unlike in the city where you have Satanists running around.
Well, you bring up a good question. Is the Zodiac a Satanist? Amber from Oakland, what do you think?
-I don't really know, but I thought that code they printed didn't look very Christian. But I think the bigger problem is that the papers shouldn't have printed anything that the Zodiac has been doing. That they're just printing all that stuff to sell more newspapers. -Well, the Zodiac did demand they print his letters or he'd kill more people. -Yeah, but he would have done it anyway, whether they printed it or not, I think. -An interesting point.
Here comes every lunatic claiming to be the one: -I'm the Zodiac. And how did you kill your victims?
No, with a hammer. -All I'm authorized to tell you is that he's still under government employment. And who authorized you to tell me this? -That's all I'm authorized to say.
The line up: If you don't recognize anyone, that's okay. How sure are you? -Yeah, I'm pretty sure. He had a round face like this guy. Am I to understand that you're now identifying the second photograph?
Just that he had a round face like that. For our poll to determine the 100 greatest American films, we surveyed 62 film critics from around the world. This time, we received responses from 177 – from every continent except Antarctica. Some are newspaper or magazine reviewers, others write primarily for websites; academics and cinema curators are well-represented too. For the purposes of this poll we have decided that a list of the greatest films of the 21st Century should include the year 2000, even though we recognise that there was no ‘Year Zero’ and that 2001 is mathematically the start of the century.
