The Big Picture The crime movie genre saw a complete reinvention in the 1990s, in no small part due to the success of The Silence of the Lambs and Se7en. It became clear to studio executives that the subgenre of “serial killer thrillers” had the potential to draw in a fairly wide audience. They had just enough mystery to engage with noir film buffs, but also contained the sort of graphic content that would appeal to more hardcore horror fans.
The Bone Collector RCrimeDocumentaryDramaMysteryThriller Release Date November 4, 1999 Director Phillip Noyce Cast Denzel Washington , Angelina Jolie , Queen Latifah , Michael Rooker , Mike McGlone , Luis Guzman Runtime 118 Main Genre Crime Writers Jeffery Deaver , Jeremy Iacone Tagline Two cops on the trail of a brutal killer. They must see as one, they must act as one, they must think as one, before the next victim falls.
Both films also succeed by not showing footage of the killer in action until the end. This creates an increased level of suspense, as the viewer is forced to look at the gruesome aftermath at the same time as the characters do. Although it may not contain the same level of body horror that David Fincher delivered in Se7en, there are some fairly gruesome kills in The Bone Collector that may make even the most hardcore horror movie buff close their eyes for a few moments.
