A great creepy thriller !

Rating: 10/10 (15 May 2003)

Silence of The Lambs is a real creepy little thriller . In my opinion it's one of the best thrillers ever made . Anthony Hopkins appears in his first and most effective performance as Dr.Hannibal Lecter aka Hannibal The Cannibal . And Jodie Foster plays Clarice Starling the FBI agent in training who hopes to catch a serial killer nicknamed Buffalo Bill with the help of Lecter . Both Hopkins and Foster are great and they truly deserved the Best actor/actress oscars . The rest of the cast is also very good.
Director Jonathan Demme puts his money on suspense rather than blood and guts and yet he shows violence in a brutal way when it is called for which is certainly a very good move .
Adding to the creepiness is a good score by Howard Shore.
