Zodiac (2007) is the first example of a Things You Missed™ episode that is based entirely on a work of non-fiction, but that doesn't stop the movie from being suspenseful, scary and downright creepy.
In this video I'll cover the motivation for every on screen appearance of the Zodiac, from the unseen Lake Herman Road footage, to the Blue Rock Springs occurrence, to the ominous Lake Berryessa event and the end of the life of Paul Stein in Presidio Heights at Washington and Cherry St.
I'll also cover some of the amazing details you might have overlooked. Great lengths are taken to preserve authenticity, and many of them remain unappreciated. The movie took the source material so seriously, that it actually ended up having an impact on the real life case.
The Zodiac was also theorized to be a fan of movies, so of course, director David Fincher filled this biopic with meaningful film references and connections, including a couple callbacks to his earlier films.

These videos point out some of the little details you may have missed in your favorite horror franchises as I analyze their meaning and why they are noteworthy. I'll breakdown every small detail, easter egg, reference, connection, motif, cameo, callback and homage that I can find!

I am in mobile and accidentally scrolled down and couldn’t see the screen and only your comment. I was thinking you meant the musical artist for some reason. I am glad I was wrong. Also yeah I see it though.

The scene with the couple at the lake where they get stabbed always stayed with me. It was so raw and it was very disturbing.

[@eugene9957]

It seemed so real because it was in day a lot of time in horror movies people are killed at night it’s like watching a movie and then someone knocks on your door and shoots you

[@corridefazio]

agreed.

[@onede]

Notice how there was no music during that scene. It made it feel more real.

[@1olddirtroad]

From a trauma standpoint if the the Police had immediately put her in the patrol car and transported her to the hospital she would have had a better chance of survival. The Ambulance took over 30 minutes to respond and in that time she suffered hypovolemic shock. Ambulance Service's could not administer blood in those days so Load and Go would have been their best chance of surviving the attack.

[@jasonvoorhees310]

It felt so real because the attention to detail was so great. People don't scream when getting stabbed. They actually struggle to breath. I know from experience unfortunately. The film got details like that right. That's why it stuck with you.

[@moviehermit5631]

The movie organist was the creepiest and most suspicious character in the movie. - “Oh, that handwriting that’s the closest match to the zodiac killer, that’s mine” - “you wanna come into my deep dark basement thats existence is related to something the zodiac killer said?” - “Don’t mind me, just reciting exactly when the first suspected murder was committed” - “Let me unlock the door for you as you scramble away while I slowly walk ominously from the basement and say goodbye in the most unfazed and unsettling way”

[@harrywaller6793]

I didn’t understand this part of the movie. Why didn’t they follow up on this guy as a potential suspect?

[@moviehermit5631]

@@harrywaller6793 Probably because it was dramatized for the sake of the movie. There probably was an interview with the organist, but it definitely wasn't as suspicious as the way it was presented here

[@netpunk5890]

To me, the most interesting thing that everyone misses is that different actors play the zodiac killer in different scenes, due to the suspicion that the were actually multiple “zodiac” killers at play (not necessarily working together, just all active at the time). Fincher does quote himself a lot, and he will use the same actors for these small bit pivotal roles. Two of the zodiacs were in fight club (one played the airport security guard who told Edward Norton his bag was vibrating, the other was the doctor who told him to chew valerian root and go to the testicular cancer meeting-he also plays the delivery guy with the box at the end of se7en).

[@libradawg9]

Very interesting tidbit. I'm struggling to remember how many scenes he appeared in. The most vivid is obviously the picnic scene and the opening, then when he cuts off the cabbie's shirt. The driver who threatened the mother and the caller were both false, IIRC. The show that documented the detectives cracking the identity cypher had 2 excellent suspects that are equally viable. They showed his letters and I found it odd how different his spelling and intelligence varies. It's so bad at times it looks like an internet troll trying to feign inability to spell. They never brought it up but that's either 2 people or schizophrenia.

[@MrOctober44]

Lol. We never see anyone in the first killing. The second killing he's completely covered. How would anyone be able to tell if we never see them, lol?

[@jefferyburroughs7481]

Bob Stephenson was the airport guard in Fight Club and also played Zodiac #3. His photo is in the lineup in the final scene, the “round face.” 10:53

[@neonicon8500]

It could also point to the fact that they had no idea who it was and perhaps the victims descriptions might have differed slightly changing what he looks like every time on-screen. But it is dumb to say it's something everyone misses when it's not obvious at all, and the only way you know is by interviews

[@iB0NKERS]

My aunt was working in SF during this. My dad told me that her manager would escort the women out early to personally see them get on a bus home and my granny would go meet her at her stop, bringing the family dog with her. He also said on one night when they were walking back, the dog started barking and growling at some bushes. They didn’t see anything or anyone nor heard anything but hurried along.

[@DrDolan2000]

God bless that dog. They can sense things!

[@diy_mushroomguy]

Dogs do bark at a lot of shit. A lot of shit that's not even human. Paranoia. Was it justified, sure. But I'm willing to bet it wasn't the zodiac.

[@TheLastVampireSong]

I remember the first time I watched this movie I was around 10 years old, my parents didn't allow me to watch it actually, so I had steal glances from the above the stairs. The second time I was already 14 or 15 so I was able to watch more of it but I was always unable to watch it fully, since I relayed on cable tv to watch it and there was no pay per view at that time, or maybe there was but was way too expensive, also, my parents would have bought a horror/thriller movie. So finally in January of this year I was able to watch it from beginning to end and damn I loved it, creepy, real and brilliant, it kept me on my sit and watching this now makes me want to re-watch it. Thank you for the video.

[@sallison6737]
