Let's be frank: the Zodiac was crazy alright, but crazy like a fox. He hunted people, and did so effectively, eluding law enforcement to this day. A lot of people have their theories regarding who he was and why he may have committed these homicides, but to date not a one has been able to get a real handle on exactly WHO he was and WHY he did what he did and, most importantly, why he stopped killing (if indeed he had). He is Sixties' Jack the Ripper.
This film puts words in his mouth that are totally out of context for how he may have been. According to all accounts, the man was precise, and very cryptic in his messages. He wore dark clothing, fully covered from head to toe; Zodiac was a killer elite...psychotic, most likely. The period dress is all wrong...the acting bites. The only part worth watching: the opening shots..the latticework, if you will. That part was genius.
