Best movies about serial killers?
 

Hi guys, I would know new movies to watch about serial killers. (1970+, no black and white)
I saw many of them (Seven, Zodiac, Manhunter,the Silence of the lambs .. ecc) but maybe i left someone.
I don't like movies with too many special effects, I mean I prefer "old style" movies.. like seven!

Recommend me something, I will appreciate!
Thank you guys, have a good day! :)

So somewhere between "black and white" and "old style" eh? Ok heres a few to try on...

American Psycho
Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (seems obvious)
The Iceman
The Lovely Bones
The Dead Girl (more about the victims than the killer but an amazing movie)
I Saw the Devil
The Countess
Strangeland (not very good but definitely fits the genre)
Monster
Maniac

probably not remembering a million others.

Thank u guys!!! I didn't watch many of them 👍👍

Frailty (2002) is definitely a different take on the genre. :)

Vacancy wasn't bad
Disturbia

I'm not sure that One Hour Photo really qualifies, but it seems to properly depict if successful, how someone would turn into a serial killer.

Citizen X (1995)
The Nature of the Beast (1995) - Super predictable, but entertaining.
10 Rillington Place (1971)
Resurrection (1999) - Basically a hammier rip of Se7en, but I remember really enjoying it.
Copycat (1995) - I'm not fond of it, but others seem generally favorable.
The Frozen Ground (2013) - Surprisingly decent. :)
Knight Moves (1992) - Ehh.
Man Bites Dog (1993)
Freeway (1996) - Ehh.
Kalifornia (1993)
Schramm (1993) - Exploitative. Not for the faint of heart, but really good IMO.
I also second Memories of Murder. Get on it! :)


... and if you get a taste for them, the old Italian Giallo genre is filled with serial killer flicks.

Ha, great shout.
