Killer Movie Reviews (Andrea Chase)
It is the stuff of gazillion urban legends, two kids making out in a car on a deserted country road only to be attacked by a psychopath. Only this is true. The psychopath was THE ZODIAC, and he started his killing spree in 1968 and, depending on whom...read the complete Zodiac, The (2005) review at Killer Movie Reviews (Andrea Chase)

The failure, however, of the Zodiac to capture our imagination is not entirely the fault of circumstance. Co-writer and director Bulkley has not given us anything to identify with, we have no vested interest in the whole of the production. The...read the complete Zodiac, The (2005) review at Bloody-Distgusting

Los Angeles Times (Kevin Crust)
Unfortunately, the film lacks the suspense and drama to carry the psychological burden placed on it by its makers. Plot strands are dropped like so much lint, and it ends so abruptly that you wonder whether the filmmakers ran out of money, ideas or both....read the complete Zodiac, The (2005) review at Los Angeles Times (Kevin Crust)

First, it was Jack the Ripper, who, like this famous serial killer, was just as famous for never being caught as he was for his bizarre and dark ways. Nearly a century had passed ...

Knowing nothing but generalities about the Zodiac murders, I watched this movie with not much expectation. The truth being I bought it because Rory Culkin was in it and am a fan of his. It was a decent film but nothing spectacular or enlightening. I ...

While ZODIAC is in the theaters and people want a sneak preview of what to expect from that film with Jake Gyllenhaal, this little version called THE ZODIAC is available and has some merit. The search for the still unknown serial killer of the late ...

THE ZODIAC chronicles the killing spree of the infamous serial killer who between 1969 and 1978 claimed responsibility for 37 killings. The madman changed his victim backgrounds, his modus operandi and his weapons in his baffling ...

The story of San Francisco serial killer is so famous that I don't think I need a plot summery here. The strength ...

it wasn't what I expected. I didn't realize that there were two movies with this title, so great, now I have to watch the story over again when I see the other movie. Well, that's my problem, so why do I only give it 2 stars? I liked the suspense and ...

I should have been more skeptical. The zodiac, on DVD, at Woolworths, ...
