The Zodiac (2006)

Posted on June 28, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated R This film came out a year before “The Zodiac” starring Jake Gyllenhaal had. This one stars Justin Chambers. I will say this, I enjoyed this movie more than Jake Gyllenhaal’s. Chambers’ film wasn’t as gritty or as dark as Gyllenhaal’s. There was a scene or … Continue reading →

Posted on June 24, 2010 by laurarachel4

Rated R This film is based on the short story by Edgar Allen Poe and when I say based I mean loosely.  The short story is one of my favorites. Does this film hold up? It definitely has a different … Continue reading →
