Selfmageob This was not a good film.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.
henrydeluca Watched this online and couldn't stand its weird camera angels, editing, and its repetitive montages that add nothing to the plot. The way the final film is put together just makes the viewer feel nauseated- at least for me. The film is supposed to take place in the 1970s but with its low budget, it might be easy to forget we're in the present day since you can clearly see modern day cars. I seen student films that are better than this! Also, the memorable (in a very bad way) part of this film is the portrayal of the Zodiac killer. Sure, the killer was actually around back then in real life. But in this film, all he keeps saying to his victims are "fat f*ck" literally every few seconds whenever he talks!!!!!!! It's like the filmmaker allowed improvisation, and it wasn't done right. Also, the Zodiac killer wears clothing that makes him look like mercenary guy who stands out in the open. They could've made the character blend in more!!The events in this film have nothing to do with the real life events; it is all fiction. The acting is terrible and the plot is ridiculous. Wrapping this up, DO NOT WATCH THIS FILM!! Especially if you have some sort of motion sickness when it comes to tilted camera shots and speed up images..
Joseph P. Ulibas Curse of the Zodiac (2007) is an updated/re-imagined version of the Zodiac murders that plagued the San Francisco Bay Area during the late 60's and mid 70's. While not as good as his other real horror genre, the movie is entertaining none the less. A mysterious psycho is taunting a useless detective whilst a poor lady relives the brutal and sadistic killings of a madman calling himself "The Zodiac". Can these two work together to stop this killer or will they wind up feeling his unrelenting fury? Why do people hate on Ulli Lommel? They talk about his bad directing skills (which is not true) and his films have horrific and ghastly murders. Well, murder is horrible and disgusting. That's the whole point of it. Herr Lommel loathes Hollywood's sanitized and glamorized views of murder on screen. They should be disgusting and stomach churning. No, you can not go out and have a few beers with your friends and make a movie with a $200 Camcorder and make a better film. It takes a lot of skill and talent (which he has) to make a decent movie. This is not the "worse movie ever made" either. I would rather watch some DTV film than some lame and overblown $150 million dollar one any day.Cheers,
mecrens This has to be the worst movie I've ever seen. The only reason to watch it to the end is to see if there is going to be a scene worth watching. The camera work is absolutely terrible. No acting. I have yet to see any entertainment value at all.The only thing good about the movie is that its much shorter than most movies. DO NOT CONFUSE THIS MOVIE WITH OTHER ZODIAC MOVIES you will waste your time and movie. If you get a copy as a free gift, find something useful for the disk, hang from the rear view mirror, use for fishing just don't watch it
Captainbabba I have seen a lot of bad movies in my day but this has to be one of the worst. There was actually parts of the movie I was laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes. Which is okay except this movie was not meant to be a comedy. The acting is down right terrible, the lighting and camera work have the feel of a porn movie, and the movie tries to have a whole trippy feeling to it that just comes across annoying. The main plot behind this movie is a young women has nightmares(while awake) that sees the Zodiac killer in action. Thats pretty much it. The Zodiac killer may have been real but this movie is based on no actual facts. He seems like he likes to kill women who just broke up with their boyfriends. The Jake Gyllenhaal part from a much better Zodaic movie is played by a guy who looks like Newman from Seinfield only on coke. If you want a good laugh and your high you might enjoy this movie otherwise stay away.
