Serial Killer Triple Feature!

The Toolbox Murders (1978) : A lunatic runs around an apartment complex, apparently home only to attractive flight attendants with a tendency towards exhibitionism. While there, the lunatic tries to kill all the tenants with the contents of a toolbox

Pieces (1982) :While playing with a puzzle, a teenager is repressed by his mother, and he kills her and severs her body with an ax. Forty years later, in an university campus in Boston, a serial killer kills young women and severs their bodies in parts, stealing body pieces from each student. Lt. Bracken makes a deal with the dean of the campus, and infiltrates the agent Mary Riggs as if she were a tennis teacher and together with the student Kendall, they try to find the identity of the killer.


American Psycho (2000) : Patrick Bateman is handsome, well educated and intelligent. He is twenty-seven and living his own American dream. He works by day on Wall Street, earning a fortune to complement the one he was born with. At night he descends into madness, as he experiments with fear and violence


30 Day Horror Challenge: Day 15 - Your favorite horror film involving serial killers:
My favorite horror film involving a serial killer isn't really a horror film but I love the film Zodiac from 2007. This film was directed by David Fincher and based on Robert Graysmith's non-fiction book. It tells the story of the hunt for a notorious serial killer known as "Zodiac" who killed in and around the San Francisco Bay Area during the late 1960s and early 1970s, leaving several victims in his wake and taunting police with letters and ciphers mailed to newspapers. The case remains one of San Francisco's most infamous unsolved crimes. This film doesn't have a lot of action and it's a little drawn out but that is what gives it it's charm. I pretty much love anything based around the Zodiac killer
