SE7EN (1995)

Following the perverse exploits of an evasive serial killer, Detectives Sommerset and Mills work to unravel the mysterious link between each of the murder victims, who, consequently, are intended to represent hyperbolic examples of the repercussions of committing one of the "Seven Deadly Sins" of biblical literature.  The murderer, likening himself to the "Sword of God," commits one egregious murder after the next, evading veteran Sommerset and rookie Mills all the while.  But as the two work to track down the perpetrator they find themselves unexpectedly enwrapped in his perversely deadly plan.

The cast includes Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, Kevin Spacey, Gwyneth Paltrow, Richard Roundtree, R. Lee Ermey, John C. McGinley, Julie Araskog, and Mark Boone Junior.

"Se7en", directed by David Fincher, is an exciting, disturbing, extremely well made cop thriller. MORE
