A creepy dark thriller

Rating: 10/10 (9 February 2005)

I watched this movie recently after probably 5-6 years. It still gives me the creeps. The way John Doe rationalizes his behavior makes me believe that there are such people out there and that is freaky. The movie is of course absolutely brilliant, true David Fincher style. Each of the murders is so grotesque , its almost a celebration in his camera. The most mortifying scene for me is the manner John Doe kills his 'LUST' victim. Most people miss out on the subtle humor in the movie when they see it the first time ; the conversations between Mills and Somerset crack me up. All in all, I would highly recommend this movie. For a movie that's 10 years old, it still beats other creepy movies like Ringu for its sheer reality.
