7) Zodiac

Zodiac, directed by Fincher, elevates the psychological thriller genre by digging into the personal toll obsession takes when pursuing a serial killer. It doesn't delve simply into the crime but into how the mystery seems to consume people—journalists, detectives, ordinary folks. Their escalating paranoia, frustration, and fear make the viewer wonder how far people can go with the need to know, even as the identity of the killer remains shrouded in ambiguous unease. Within the Jungian framework, the killer could be seen as the archetypal shadow evasive of the truth that drives the characters to obsessive individuation.
