I read it would be released in theaters early June, but a member at Tom's said they watched it...Amazon probably. I am going to check it out since I have the equipment. I'll let you know!

It was pretty good! It's definitely meant for people like us who are familiar with the case as they don't get too much into the murders themselves. It won't win an Oscar (lol), but it 's worth the money I spent. I didn't gripe at the TV too much. ;)

Tahoe....

Thanks for the review. Sounds like it's worth the watch. I just saw the ad yesterday, hadn't heard of it before.

I had the opportunity to interview Canadian Michael Horrigan, the writer of the original screenplay of "Awakening the Zodiac." I'm pitching the article to a few online publishers and I'll setup a link here if and when it goes up. I found Mike to very nice and polite young man who has extremely interested in the Zodiac for years. The movie uses a what if premise? Of course, it isn't factual. I'm looking forward to seeing it. This movie has no connection whatsoever the 2007 film.

The only factual name used in the movie was Paul Lee Stine...and the date he was killed.

The first scene--totally bogus and I wondered why they chose to do it that way...and use that silly composite---which most of you have seen via the trailer.

As with most movies I found myself thinking about the characters actions and saying, "why the hell would you do that?"....but, I wished I was them/her...until the end...I'd know better. ;)

Here is the interview. It was put up at 28 Days Later Analysis: the Voice of Horror, a online horror site from British Colombia, Canada. Enjoy.
