Pretty decent low budget exploitation flick

Warning: Spoilers
Zodiac killer follows Jerry (Hal Reed), a mailman who seems to be a nice guy when in public, however when he is in his basement worshiping Satan we see a different side to him. Grover (Bob Jones) is a playboy wannabe truck driver who is divorce. His controlling ex- wife does not allow him to see their daughter. This angers Grover who pulls a gun oh his wife and takes his daughter hostage. This leads to Grover being shot to death by the police. After that we pretty much just follow Jerry (aka The Zodiac) around as he kills multiple people with weapons such as car hoods, a spare tire, a pistol and others. It's pretty cool, although sometimes laughable. The story behind this film is quite intriguing. Director Tom Hansen made the film in an attempt to catch the real Zodiac Killer by having the audience fill out cards with the question "why do you think the Zodiac kills?" Allegedly Hansen ran into the real killer in the theater bathroom. Don't go into this expecting Taxi Driver or Henry: portrait of a serial killer. If you choose to view it, I advise you watch it for what it is a corny exploration classic which has one thing going for it. It could be Me or You or our neighbors. Are you Zodiac???
