Highlights

Synopsis

In these powerful screenplays, Andrew Kevin Walker provides two compelling stories of dark deeds and dark motives, in which the forces of good are pitted against the many forms of evil.

Seven, which starred Brad Pitt and Gwyneth Paltrow, followed the trail of a serial killer, whose victims were murdered in accordance with the seven deadly sins.

8mm focuses on Tom Welles-portrayed by Nicolas Cage-an honest and hardworking private detective, who discovers an appalling 8mm "snuff" film in which a teenage girl was raped and killed.

Hired to track down the masked murderers shown in the film, Welles reconstructs the dead girl's unhappy life; in the course of his investigation, he learns that all fantasies can be filmed to order, at a terrible price, and he becomes obsessed with avenging the girl's death.
