What's Your Star Sign?

Over at Apple they have just posted a trailer for "The Zodiac" based on San Francisco's Zodiac Killer of the 60s and 70s.

This film of course should not be confused with "Zodiac", David Fincher's latest project starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Robert Downey Jr and Mark rrrRUFFalo, which is also based on San Francisco's Zodiac Killer of the 60s and 70s.

Nor should it be confused with "Dirty Harry", Clint Eastwoods hit flick based on San Francisco's Zodiac Killer of the 60s and 70s.

Believe me there are many more to choose from. Zodiac makes for good film fodder. Apparently he is famous for saying to police, "One day a good film will be made about me!". Creepy considering he has never been caught. Can you imagine him sitting in a cinema watching a Zodiac film fest?

The San Francisco Police Department closed the case in 2004 citing that the police involved were buying into the "cult" that had grown around the case. I've always found these unsolved mysteries intriguing.

Tom Voight runs an excellent site at www.zodiackiller.com", which documents EVERYTHING about the case including all of the letters that Zodiac wrote to the police.
