The stabbing at the lake was the most memorable scene

When he was walking up and then hid behind the tree also.Must of been horrible for the couple.

The right thing to do would have been to run the moment he brandished his gun. Two moving targets, one guy with only around 7-8 shots(assuming he had no extra ammo on him), their chances would have been pretty decent. You never, NEVER let yourself get tied up or kidnapped. If they shoot you when you run, chances are they were going to shoot you anyway.

"We're not supposed to talk about it."

Yeah the stabbing by the lake is one of the most disturbing murders I've ever seen in a flick. The way the scene is shot in a very plain-view style with the victims in complete shock and torment is very effective.

Yes =(! Very effective and great scene of film making. Super creepy and annoying feeling!! One of the best scenes in this movie and one of the best murder scenes of all time.


The craziest part was when he just started STABBING at them like a mofo! UGH! Don't do that you crazy man, they done nothing wrong!

I thought the scene was very well done too. Only one thing about it bothers me. The male victim who gets tied up then says, very calmly and almost mockingly to Zodiac "you know, just because people are going to ask....was that thing even loaded?" referring to the gun in Zodiac's hand. That was so unrealistic to me. Why would anyone, in that situation say that? You don't want to say anything to antagonize the killer, you just want him gone. So why, after you are tied up and it looks like the killer is going to leave would you welcome more conversation?

It just seemed so dumb and like that would never happen. Unless the movie showed it because the victim in real life actually said that. Then, okay.

I totally agree. When I saw it it was almost hard to watch. One of the most realistic stabbing scenes on film. David Fincher done a great job, his best film in my mind. The rest of the film had an amazing creepy and scary tone, especially the basement scene and the scene with the mother and her baby child in the car. "Before I kill, i'm going to throw your baby out the window."

My favourite scene was definitely during the intro, when the Zodiac shoots Darlene and Michael. The fact that Donovan was playing made that scene so badass!

I just could not sit through that scene! I only tuned in shortly before the scene and had to click to see something else. Caught it again towards the end and came here to see if I should give the entire movie a chance .. ??
