This lengthy 2007 has everything you could want in a crime drama: a true story, incredible visuals, and amazing performances from the likes of Jake Gyllenhaal, Mark Ruffalo, and Robert Downey Jr. Zodiac features some of the grisliest murder scenes ever, and tells the striking true story of the Zodiac killer, who killed 37 people in the bay area, left hints in the newspaper, and was never brought to justice.
Zodiac is considered by many to be director David Fincher's masterpiece, and considering others on his resume—The Social Network, Fight Club, and the next movie on this list—that's saying quite a lot. If you're a fan of Mindhunter, which Fincher also plays a big part in making, this is a movie for you.
