Hey there! Author/Filmmaker making an introduction

Postby Jdombr25 » Thu Jan 29, 2015 6:37 pm

Greetings,

My names Justin Dombrowski. I happened to stumble upon this site by accident from posting over at the Zodiackiller.com forum. Just thought I would drop by and make an introduction.

I'm a filmmaker/writer hailing from the Great Lakes region. I've always had a fascination with the Zodiac case and have followed it since 1999 when I was a young pre-teen. I co own an Independent Film Company, Pickwick Pictures, and am in the process of writing a book about the Zodiac Murders titled: Paradice: The terrifying true story of the serial killer that shocked a nation. The book primarily retells the Zodiac case through a narrative and novelist of approach through the daily newspaper articles, crime reports and firsthand accounts of those who lived the crime.

Besides that I look forward to posting on here and interacting with everyone (especially familiar faces from ZK)!

All the best,
Justin

Welcome Justin,

Congrats on your film company too!

May I ask about your film, is the main character Zodiac or are you trying for a tone like the Son of Sam film where its more about how the city felt and the panic that hit the regular folks?

Cheers

Welcome Justin! Sounds like a cool Zodiac project you are working on, and anything you make and put out there, helps to keep the case in the public spotlight, so thanks!! :)

Truth,

Our first film is actually titled "The Gales of November" which is about the last hours of the crewmen of the Edmund Fitzgerald, which sunk in 1975. However a future screenplay in the works is about the Zodiac Murders but is told from the viewpoint of Zodiac.

Thanks for the kind words.

All the best,
Justin

Welcome Justin--

Lots of Zodiac book competition out there, but hopefully you can pull off a refreshing read. :)

Welcome, Justin! Here's my take on Z: A young man unsure of his masculinity, who over-compensates by adopting a macho persona, e.g., high school football player, etc. Eventually he marries, finds he is unable to function sexually. He takes out his frustrations by murdering a couple parked in a Lover's Lane and afterward discovers that now he can make love to his wife. Eventually, however, his impotence returns, and he goes on the hunt again.

Hello & Welcome,
Being a Vallejo Girl, I have my own take on the Zodiac. Everyone wants closure to this case & Vallejo people really want & need it as it was a very sad, scary, difficult experience & people still feel the deep cuts as scars.

I like that Dag..I reckon you nailed it..to him killing was exhilarating. but temporary. it was a fix. How many "fixes" not attributed to him? Maybe still at it. Who knows!
