Great serial killer movie, worthy company for "Silence of the Lambs"

Rating: 9/10 (4 October 1998)

Just when I thought I was de-sensitized to horror films, "Se7en" comes along. I felt completely unsettled after seeing it for the first time. When Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt were checking out the "Sloth" victim securely tied to the bed, I saw one of the nastiest surprises ever! For a couple of days, I didn't want to talk or even think about that particular scene. Religious people were scary enough, but Kevin Spacey--playing as the religious fanatic serial killer--just made them a little scarier,as if that were ever possible! Overall, this is a great serial killer movie and ranks right up there with "Silence of the Lambs."
