Zodiac by David Fincher

The acclaimed director David Fincher finished the shooting of the Zodiac movie. As Fincher shot movies like Se7en, The Game and Fight Club, i can't wait to see it, because i'm hooked to Fincher and his movies, although Panic Room didn't work out well.

David Fincher was born in 1962 in Denver, Colorado, and was raised in Marin County, California. When he was 18 years old, he went to work for John Korty at Korty Films in Mill Valley. He subsequently worked at ILM (Industrial Light and Magic) from 1981 - 1983. Fincher left ILM to direct TV commercials and music videos after signing with N. Lee Lacy in Hollywood. He went on to found Propaganda in 1987 with fellow directors Dominic Sena, Greg Gold and Nigel Dick.

Fincher has directed TV commercials for clients that include: Nike, Coca-Cola, Budweiser, Heineken, Pepsi, Levi's, Converse, AT & T, and Chanel.

David Fincher has directed music videos for: Madonna, Sting, The Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson, Aerosmith, George Michael, Iggy Pop, The Wallflowers, Billy Idol, Stevie Winwood, The Motels and, most recently, A Perfect Circle.

Screenwriter Shane Salerno optioned the Robert Graysmith book Zodiac when he was just nineteen years old and developed it with Graysmith for several years before selling it to Disney's Touchstone Pictures in a seven figure deal. Salerno wrote several drafts of the screenplay before multiple administration changes at Touchstone derailed the project about the mysterious San Francisco serial killer Zodiac who was never caught.

The Zodiac killer:

On November 29, a carbon copy of a typewritten letter allegedly by her killer was mailed to Riverside PD and the Riverside Enterprise, claiming that he had killed her because of all the brush offs she had given him, but many of the details included in the appropriately titled "Confession" letter had already been published in the paper. A desk that was in the library annex the night Cheri Jo was murdered was discovered in storage in December 1966 with a poem etched into the top that was thought to be about her murder; it was the opinion of Sherwood Morrill, the state's top Questioned Documents examiner for many years, that it was written by the Zodiac.

The Zodiac Killer came to police attention for the apparently random murders of Betty Lou Jensen and David Faraday on December 20, 1968, just inside the Benicia city limits in a turnout on Lake Herman Road near Vallejo; it was their first date together, and Jensen's first date. They were supposed to go to a Christmas concert that night at Hogan High (just a few blocks from Jensen's home), but visited a friend named Sharon instead, then stopped at Mr Ed's, a restaurant. Meanwhile on Lake Herman Road, a white Chevrolet was observed parked in a gravel turnout by two hunters, who approached it at one point, but the driver was nowhere to be seen.

The unsolved Zodiac murders are a bizarre and notorious California serial killer (Zodiac Killer) case which inspired one of the Dirty Harry movies. There have been many theories and suspects proposed about the Zodiac killer.
