Zodiac Killer Project

Synopsis

What happens when a true crime documentary falls apart? When filmmaker Charlie Shackleton is blocked from making his film about the infamous Zodiac Killer, he pivots. This wildly original meta-documentary doesn't just tell a true crime story—it uses the abandoned project's original material to brilliantly deconstruct the predictable tropes and ethical pitfalls of the entire true-crime genre. With razor-sharp wit and evocative visuals of sun-drenched, empty landscapes, the movie is a captivating and self-aware journey that will forever change how you watch a murder mystery.
